Trump said in a post today: "The US has erased Iran from the map, but their inferior analyst David Sanger says I didn't meet the goal. No, I did, and weeks ahead of schedule! Their leadership has collapsed, their navy and air force are destroyed, they have no defense capability at all, yet they still want to do a deal with me. I won't! We completed the mission weeks ahead of schedule. Just like their clumsy coverage of my election, The New York Times is always way off! President Trump"
Comments: Trump claims that "Iran has been erased from the map, and its navy and air force are all destroyed," which seriously exaggerates the military effect. In reality, the Iranian regime remains stable, and its counterattack capability still exists. The so-called "completing the mission ahead of schedule" is pure nonsense. Trump uses criticism of The New York Times analyst to shift focus, and labels all objective doubts from the intelligence community and media as "wrong reporting." Fundamentally, it's using political positions instead of factual judgment, inciting emotions domestically and exerting extreme pressure internationally. It is neither a rigorous battle report nor rational diplomacy, but purely exaggerated rhetoric for venting anger.
