Trump Crashes Out Over State of Iran’s Military After Trading Strikes

President Donald Trump is spiraling over Iran’s latest military strikes that undermine his claims that their military has been obliterated.

Hours after the United States and Iran exchanged its latest series of military strikes Tuesday night, Trump insisted yet again that Iran’s military was all but destroyed.

    “Iran’s Military is a complete and total mess. Much of it, like their Navy and Air Force, doesn’t even exist anymore—They have been completely defeated. Iran is all talk and no action,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Wednesday morning.

    “The Bully of the Middle East is DEAD!!! They’ve taken too long to negotiate a deal that would have been great for them, now they will have to pay the price!!!”

    It’s not evident that Iran’s military has been defeated. U.S. officials said Iran downed a U.S. Army Apache helicopter Monday using a drone. It is not clear if the drone attack was deliberate, as Iran has not yet claimed responsibility for the strike. Tehran said it responded to U.S. retaliatory strikes with 21 attacks against American military targets in the Middle East.

    Trump has been insisting for weeks that Iran’s military capabilities have been obliterated—despite reporting suggesting Iran has been rebuilding its arsenal. Now, even Fox News is starting to doubt the president’s word about Iran’s military capability.

    Trump’s warning that Iran would “pay the price” caused the price of oil to rise two percent, after the strikes had already caused stock futures to slide sharply. In a subsequent post, Trump touted the effectiveness of the U.S. military blockade, and insisted that energy was flowing through the Strait of Hormuz.

    “The Fake News Media refuses to report how EFFECTIVE the U.S. Naval BLOCKADE is, the most successful Blockade in the history of Naval Warfare. NOTHING GETS THROUGH unless we want it to. IT IS A STEEL WALL! Iran is doing ZERO business, not paying their military, or any of their bills, and quickly becoming a FAILED NATION! Lots of oil is getting out.” Trump wrote.

    But it seems that the president’s lies about the war may be finally catching up to him.
