At the beginning of this month, President Trump stated that his administration did not seek regime change in Iran. Now, according to “Trump support for protesters could backfire” (Page A4, Jan. 15), the president is personally exhorting the Iranian people to rise up and be heard as their protests against Iran’s shooting down of a Ukrainian passenger jet have intensified.
Funny, but that sounds like an attempt by Trump to foment unrest in order to create regime change in Iran. Here are two words that certainly can’t be used to describe Trump’s foreign policy objectives: consistent or coherent.

Note from KBJ: Good job conflating exhortation and coercion, moron.
