BREAKING: Donald Trump holds a surprise press conference and launches into an unhinged rant about how his illegal Iran bombing hit the "refrigerator door" with "no moon" — proving that the reports of failure are driving him crazy.
This is really getting out of hand now...
"I'm wondering now sir if you believe that Iran has given up its long history of ambitions with nuclear weapons or what you would like to see from them to prove that they do?" asked a reporter. "And what types of meetings is your administration looking for next week with Iran."
"So Iran wants to meet," said Trump. "As you know their sites were obliterated, their very evil nuclear sites. They were— Now has been proven, we had some fake news for a little while. The same people that covered the Hunter Biden laptop was from Russia, the same people that did three or four... The Russia, Russia, Russia hoax."
"But on their ambitions—" interjected the reporter.
"No, no, wait! Just listen," said Trump. "They came up with something that delayed the credit that our great pilots and these great American— I mean what talent that was! And they hit it right down in the spot. 52,000 feet. Think of this: dark, no moon, you couldn't see a thing and they hit the refrigerator door as they say. That's the size of the target."
The truth is that we still don't know if the strikes achieved their goal of dismantling Iran's nuclear program. A leaked Pentagon memo stated that the bombings may have only set the Iranians back a few months. It's also possible that 400 kilograms of enriched uranium, enough to build ten atomic bombs, survived the attacks.
"Umm... And overwhelmingly and it's amazing what was done," Trump continued. "We're the only ones that could have done it and we took out two of the other sites also in addition to that," he continued. "We finished them off. That, uh, was, uh, very evil intention."
"I believe that — and again time will tell — but I don't believe that they're going to go back into nuclear any time soon. They spent over a trillion dollars on nuclear and they never got it together," he went on.
"And nothing was moved from the site by the way. To do that is very dangerous. It's very, very heavy material," said Trump. "Those cars were most likely the cars of masons because they were pouring concrete, uh, at the top at the hatch as you know, the hatch going into the nuclear site. They wanted to reinforce it and they had some masons, uh, there pouring concrete. By the way that concrete was obliterated. It hit exactly at the concrete. It was— I don't think it had a chance to dry. But, uh, everything down there's under millions of tons of rock."
Corey Hinderstein, vice president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, has stated that the uranium could have been stored in containers, making it "easily moveable" and "easily concealable." In other words, the exact opposite of what Trump is claiming.
Professor Jeffrey Lewis of the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey has studied Iran's nuclear program for years and believes that there are "more sites that we don't know about because Iran was always hedging its bets."
Only time will tell how much of a success or failure Trump's bombing — which again, was illegal because he failed to get Congressional approval — actually was. For now, his frenzied insistences of total success show that he's deeply worried about his entire story collapsing. It seems to be the only thing on his mind. Simply put, this is not the behavior of a confident man.
