US/Israel War on Iran
Unhinged Incompetent Man spent Monday delivering a wide range of lies.
Manipulating the Stock Market.
NEW—In a phone interview, President Trump told me the war could be over soon: “I think the war is very complete, pretty much. They have no navy, no communications, they’ve got no Air Force.” He added that the U.S. is “very far” ahead of his initial 4-5 week estimated time frame.

As for the Straight of Hormuz, Trump noted that ships are moving through now, but he is “thinking about taking it over.”
— Weijia Jiang (@weijia) March 9, 2026
Trump warned Iran, “They’ve shot everything they have to shoot, and they better not try anything cute or it’s going to be the end of that country.”
Opinion Time:
Nobody focused on the follow-up tweets. The media ran with “I think the war is very complete, pretty much,” which helped send the stock market up and oil prices down.
The cycle goes like this…
He creates a crisis.
He lies about creating the crisis.
He then lies about how he single-handedly ended the crisis he created.
The media rushes to print “Trump says:” followed by the lies.
Every. Time.
As if the Liar in Chief is not a liar and somehow just another president. But he isn’t like other presidents, because seconds, minutes, or sometimes hours later, he goes on TV and tells us the crisis he created is, in fact, not over.
If the war is “very complete,” someone should probably tell him. Conveniently, he waited until after the markets closed to say the rest.
“Short term short term”.

It’s better, stronger. And our country is doing really well. I mean, at a level that nobody thought. We took a little excursion because we felt we had to do that to get rid of some evil. And I think you’ll see it’s going to be a short-term excursion. How good is our military, right?
Amazing. How good? Short term, short term. Thank you. They’re great.

“They said it’s more fun to sink them”
Trump: The Navy is gone laying at the bottom of the ocean. 46 ships. I got a little upset with the people. I said why didn’t we just capture the ship? We could have used it. I said why sink them? He said it’s more fun to sink them. They like sinking them better. pic.twitter.com/XZRYLJVSbt

Now everybody understands it. Together with our Israeli partners, we’re crushing the enemy in an overwhelming display of technical skill and military force.
Iran’s drone and missile capability is being utterly demolished. The Navy is gone. It’s all lying at the bottom of the ocean, 46 ships. Can you believe it? In fact, I got a little upset with our people. I said what quality of ship? Excellent, sir. Top of the line. I said, why don’t we just capture the ship?
We could have used it. Why did we sink them? They said it’s more fun to sink them. I said that’s fine. They like sinking them better. They say it’s safer to sink them. I guess it’s probably true.

Think of it, we knocked out 46 and actually took three and a half days. Their terrorist leaders are gone or counting down the minutes until they will be gone.
Think of it, we had leaders and they’re gone. Then we had new leaders and they’re gone, and now nobody has any idea who the people are that are going to be the head of the country. And we will not relent until the enemy is totally and decisively defeated.

— Acyn (@Acyn) March 9, 2026
And even now, I think they were looking to take over the Middle East because when you look, and we have pretty good proof, all of those missiles that were so stupidly aimed at Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, they were all aimed, and others, at countries that were sort of like, leave us alone.
They were all right. They were sort of neutral, but they weren’t doing — all of a sudden, they’re getting hit with missiles and they could have gone one of two ways. They could have gone toward their side, like we’re with you, or they could have gone with our side, and they really went with our side and they’ve helped us and they’ve been a big force, but they got hit.
But they were going to be hit with those. Had we not done the B-2 raid and had we not done this one where we said it’s time to go in, we have to go in, have no choice.
Number one, if we didn’t go in, they would have come in after us because I see the Democrats trying to justify it and they’re failing because the voter on the street is saying, you’ve got to be kidding.
But I see where they’re going. They’re always saying, no, no. There was no reason. Well, I’ll give you the best reason of all. Within a week, they were going to attack us, 100 percent. They were ready. They had all these missiles, far more than anyone thought, and they were going to attack us. But they were going to attack all of the Middle East and Israel.
And if they had a nuclear weapon, they would have used it on Israel. And this was going to be a major attack on all — They had all of those missile sites and all those launchers that we got rid of, about 80 percent of them right now, by the way. Got rid of most of them. You know, see, it’s died down to a trickle.
They have very few launches left. What our military has done is amazing. They wiped out almost 20 percent, maybe 22, 23 percent, but the rest are going very quickly. And the missiles have been largely knocked out. The drones have been knocked down and we’re hitting where they make the drones. We know them all and we’re knocking the hell out of that now, where they manufacture the drones.

They were separate and but everybody said the same thing, make sure you win. We will. We’ve already won in many ways, but we haven’t won enough. We go forward more determined than ever to achieve ultimate victory that will end [this long running danger once and for all. 47 years, it should have been done a long time ago.]

Part of the Pressers Q&A:
Question: Thank you, Mr. President. On Iran, you called it an excursion. You said it would be over soon. Are you thinking this week it will be over? Are you talking about days?
Reporter: On Iran, you called it an excursion. You said it would be over soon. Are you thinking this week it will be over soon?
— Acyn (@Acyn) March 9, 2026
Trump: No, soon. Everything they have is gone. pic.twitter.com/Z85JHVtkQE
No. But I think soon.
Question: OK. And with respect to —
Very soon. Look, everything they have is gone, including their leadership. In fact, there are two levels of leadership and even actually, as it turns out more than that, but two levels of leadership are gone. Most people have never even heard about the leaders that they’re talking about. So it’s obviously been very — very powerful, very effective.

Question: Thank you. Thank you. Mr. President, you said the war is, quote, very complete, but your defense secretary says this is just the beginning. So which is it? And how long should Americans be prepared for this war to last for?

President Trump: "The big risk on that war has been over for three days…The rest is going to be a determination as to my attitude, as well as the people in the Trump administration." pic.twitter.com/8dVjp6eDTe
Well, I think you could say both, the beginning. It’s the beginning of building a new country, but they certainly — they have no navy. They have no air force. They have no anti-aircraft equipment. It’s all been blown up. They have no radar. They have no telecommunications and they have no leadership. It’s all gone.
So you know, you could look at that statement. We could call it a tremendous success. Right now as we leave here, I could call it, or we could go further and we’re going to go further. But the big risk on that war has been over for three days. We wiped them out the first — in the first two days.
When you think about it, it’s incredible. We wiped out a big navy, very powerful navy. You know, these were ships, these were serious ships. These were ships that you buy when you want to win battles. They’re all — they’re all on the bottom floor. The sailors are all running off the ships they refuse to get on the ships.
Uh, the Air Force is gone, everything’s gone. The missiles are down to a trickle. The drones are down to probably 25 percent and they’ll soon be down to nothing. We’ll have the — where they manufacture the drones are under fire. As we speak, they’re being hit. So the rest is going to be a determination as to my attitude, along with the people in the Trump administration, what we want to do. Thank you.

Question: There’s footage that shows that an American missile strike and a Tomahawk missile likely destroyed that Iranian girls’ school. So will the Americans will the US accept any responsibility for that strike?

Well, I haven’t seen it and I will say that the Tomahawk, which is one of the most powerful weapons around, is used by — you know, is sold and used by other countries. You know that. And whether it’s Iran, who also has some Tomahawks — they wish they had more — but whether it’s Iran or somebody else, the fact that a Tomahawk is very generic.
It’s sold to other countries. But that’s being investigated right now.

And we have seen it time and time again and we just keep going with it. And I put that down as a top three. Look, no mail-in. Now, you have the exceptions for the military.
And I would even say foreign-based military. But for the military, for disability, for illness, and if you’re traveling, you know, you have an excuse. And I was lenient on that. But those three things. Then I added two more. These are best of, you know, best of. These are called best of Trump. We should also add on to this bill.
And so what I’ve asked Mike to do is to draw a new one with these few things added and let’s go for the gold. Let’s not just get one like voter ID, but you know, it can be given to you by your daughter. You know, your daughter, she has to be of age, like above six years old. She’s allowed to say — you had to see, some of this stuff is so bad.
They’re doing everything possible because they know if we get this, they’ll probably won’t win an election for 50 years, OK, and maybe longer and they’re going to fight like hell. But boy, do they get killed, because even the Democrats…
