From World War III to 'Chicken' in 48 Hours

World War III.
Nuclear escalation.
War crimes.

Some commentators went further, openly questioning the president’s mental fitness and invoking talk of the 25th Amendment. The implication was unmistakable: this was not merely a policy disagreement — it was a dangerous man in charge of a dangerous moment.

A ceasefire.
And almost instantly, the criticism flipped.
No longer reckless.
