image sourced from original article at President Donald Trump said on Friday that the United States is 'totally destroying' Iran, claiming the country’s military forces and leadership have been decimated. In a series of early morning social media posts, Trump asserted that Iran’s navy and air force were no longer operational and that its missiles and drones were being eliminated. He added that the United States has unmatched military resources and signaled that further developments could unfold later in the day.
Trump framed the military campaign as part of a broader effort to dismantle what he described as a terrorist regime, saying Iran had harmed innocent people for decades. He stated that, as the 47th president, he was determined to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and destabilizing the Middle East.
The conflict, launched in coordination with Israel on February 28, has sparked controversy at home. Americans have faced rising gas prices during the military campaign, though Trump argued that higher oil prices benefit the United States as a major energy producer while emphasizing that preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons remains his top priority.
