There's a good reason why America's enemies, primarily terrorist operations, were scared to death of Donald Trump winning the presidency, and he proved exactly why, once again, this week.
According to the BBC, President Donald Trump authorized a wave of deadly air strikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen, the terrorist organization's home territory.
The offensive attack was described as "decisive and powerful" air strikes meant to cripple Houthi operations. Houthis are funded by Iran and have been a major thorn in the side of the West in recent years.
According to various reports, in the first wave of air strikes against the Houthis, at least 30 terrorists have been killed and hundreds injured, with body counts expected to rise in the coming days.
The BBC noted:
The Houthis reported a series of explosions on Saturday evening in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, and in the northern province of Saada - the rebels' stronghold on the border with Saudi Arabia.
The Iranian-backed rebel group, which considers Israel its enemy, controls Sanaa and the north-west of Yemen, but it is not the country's internationally-recognised government.
President Donald Trump released a statement on the situation via his Truth Social account.
Today, I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen. They have waged an unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence, and terrorism against American, and other, ships, aircraft, and drones.
The president also slammed former President Joe Biden's response to the Houthi situation.
"Joe Biden’s response was pathetically weak, so the unrestrained Houthis just kept going. It has been over a year since a U.S. flagged commercial ship safely sailed through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, or the Gulf of Aden. The last American Warship to go through the Red Sea, four months ago, was attacked by the Houthis over a dozen times."
He added, "Funded by Iran, the Houthi thugs have fired missiles at U.S. aircraft, and targeted our Troops and Allies. These relentless assaults have cost the U.S. and World Economy many BILLIONS of Dollars while, at the same time, putting innocent lives at risk."
The president reportedly greenlit the strikes while golfing.
Trump commanding airstrikes on Houthi terrorists from the golf club is stuff of legends. He paused his golf game to start dropping precision bombs on Iran’s proxies, protecting the Red Sea, and showing the world who’s boss. #MAGA pic.twitter.com/KVAqYPU5TF

"The Houthi terrorists should go down for crimes against humanity. They are starving the children. This is what we want to be seeing. Someone taking charge," one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "Trump has my full support to take any action he thinks is necessary against Houthis to protect our ships."
