Donald Trump's tweet to the Iranian President is over 200 capital letters of pure rage
Donald Trump writing an angry tweet aimed at a world leader isn't particularly unusual at this point.
But the caps-filled one he posted to Iranian President Rouhani in the early hours of Monday morning is pretty out there, even by his standards.

Welcome to international relations in 2018:
To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!

Okay, so a bit of context for that barrage.
Trump's tweet was in response to an earlier statement made by President Rouhani and released on Iran's news agency Irna, in which he warned Trump: "Do not play with fire, or you will regret."
"Rouhani said that the Americans should come to realize that establishing peace with Iran is the mother of all peace and waging war with the country is mother of all wars," reads the statement, which was released following steadily building tensions between the two countries.
Clearly Trump had some issues with the statement, which led to him to post the tweet above.
As many people have since pointed out, it looks like this tweet from September 2013 might be getting a few more shares today...
Remember what I previously said—Obama will someday attack Iran in order to show how tough he is.

Some tweets just don't age well.
