For the past 5 months we have been at war with Iran. And President Trump has been promising the whole time that we are winning/have won/will win soon. There’s an exhaustive timeline on the Politifact website.

This would be bad enough but we all remember that Trump promised no new wars.

While we’re on that topic he also promised to tame inflation.

Now the case can be made that the attack on Iran was necessary and wars have consequences. But there is virtually no evidence that this is true.

In June of 2025 the United States destroyed nuclear sites in Iran and Trump promised that the nuclear threat was obliterated.

Posing a nuclear threat requires two steps: enriching uranium to weapons grade and developing a rocket that can carry the warhead hundreds or thousands of miles to its target. Nobody seriously believes Iran is close to this capability and Trump has refused to give any evidence of his claims. In fairness he’s also never given any proof that he won the 2020 Presidential election.

Face it America: we are a paying the price for a war that has no justification and we can’t trust anything our President says.
