Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took President Trump to task on Monday for a spate of “unhinged” social media posts and slammed his administration’s approach to negotiations with Iran.
Speaking to hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski on MS NOW’s “Morning Joe,” the former first lady and senator said Trump should be held “accountable” for his words, not just his actions.
Last week, the president wrote on his Truth Social platform that a “whole civilization will die” in Iran if Tehran did not acceed to his demands. Then, on Orthodox Easter Sunday, he posted a lengthy rant about Pope Leo XIV and shared an AI-generated image depicting himself as Jesus Christ — the latter of which appears to have been deleted from his account.
“Words, especially from an American president, have real consequences,” Clinton added. “And when you look at the last week of unhinged rants from Trump’s social media accounts, it’s just disgraceful. I mean, threatening civilizational genocide, threatening Pope Leo.”
Later Monday, Clinton highlighted her interview on social platform X and wrote, “Trump has become fully unhinged and we should talk about it.”
