A satirical post on X by @hey_itsmyturn drew a sharp contrast between the foreign policy approaches of former President George H.W. Bush and current President Donald Trump regarding an attack on Kuwait. The post read:

GHWB: “You attacking Kuwait? we’re coming”
DJT: “You attacking Kuwait? We won’t even condemn it, their cabinet will gently ask them to stop the strikes”

The commentary was prompted by a breaking news alert from Al Jazeera quoting the Kuwaiti cabinet: “We demand Iran immediately and unconditionally stop its attacks and hold it fully responsible for them.”
