Trump's 'Praise be to Allah' post

Trump's 'Praise be to Allah' post

The President's unusual choice of language has drawn criticism from both political allies and religious leaders.

While the post was intended as a fierce warning to Tehran, the inclusion of an Islamic phrase on a Christian holiday has baffled observers.

Some suggest the rhetoric is an attempt to mock the Iranian regime, while others see it as a sign of an increasingly erratic leadership style.

The post has further fueled calls for the invocation of the 25th Amendment by some of the President's most vocal critics.
