Trump Swats Down Reporter Claiming That the Iran War Is a ‘Strategic Dead End:’ The Operation Has Actually Been a Tremendous Military Success

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: “So, I think we’re doing just the opposite. The Iran war has been a tremendous military success, and you know, I can only answer the question by saying they’re not going to have a nuclear weapon. I think it’s been — I was there for one reason, that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I call it, we denuclearize Iran, and that’s happened. They will never have a nuclear weapon. That stuff is so far down under a mountain. It’s a granite mountain that collapsed on top of it. Take months to get it out. I think it’s a tremendous success, Iran, and you see the oil prices are lower than they were when I started. And people like to say that, but look, they have no military left, their air force is gone. As I said, their ships are gone. 159 ships are gone. They’re at the bottom of the sea. Their radar is gone, everything’s gone. So, when you say not a success, it’s a tremendous success. The fake news likes to say how well they’re doing, they’re doing terribly.”
