Donald Trump made headlines with a rare explicit rant about the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. The clip, shared on social media, shows the former U.S. president criticizing both nations for allegedly violating a ceasefire. “They don’t know what the f**k they’re doing,” Trump said while leaving for the NATO summit on June 24.
The video, posted by ABC reporter Rachel Scott, sparked mixed reactions online. Some users called Trump’s remarks “weak” and “emotional,” while others mocked his leadership. One commenter wrote, “He’s our biggest embarrassment,” reflecting the divisive response to his outburst.
Trump’s comments followed a stern warning he issued on Truth Social, urging Israel not to retaliate against Iran. “DO NOT DROP THOSE BOMBS,” he wrote, calling it a “major violation” and demanding Israel “bring your pilots home, now.”
The tension escalated after Iran attacked a U.S. base in Qatar, which Trump dismissed as “very weak.” He thanked Iranian officials for providing “early notice” of the strike, downplaying the threat.
However, Trump expressed frustration with both nations after Israel accused Iran of firing a rocket despite the ceasefire. “I’m not happy with Israel,” he said, calling their actions a “major violation.”
He also claimed Iran’s nuclear capabilities were “gone,” referencing his earlier strikes on Iranian nuclear sites. Trump emphasized that both sides had broken the ceasefire, leaving the situation volatile.
The remarks highlight Trump’s blunt approach to foreign policy, but critics argue his rhetoric lacks diplomacy. As tensions persist, his comments continue to stir debate online and in political circles.
