In first post since Iran retaliation, Trump tears into media over coverage of US strike
In his first post since Iran’s retaliation against a US base in Qatar, US President Donald Trump blasts the media for allegedly claiming that Iran’s nuclear sites were not destroyed in the US strike over the weekend.
“The sites that we hit in Iran were totally destroyed, and everyone knows it. Only the Fake News would say anything different in order to try and demean, as much as possible — And even they say they were ‘pretty well destroyed!’” Trump writes on Truth Social.
The post makes no mention of the Iranian retaliation.
