President Donald Trump has maintained a consistent and hardline stance on Iran’s nuclear ambitions throughout 2025. In numerous speeches, interviews, and social media posts, he has repeatedly emphasized that Iran must never be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons. His remarks, spanning from early February through mid-June, underscore a message of deterrence, regional stability, and strategic red lines.
Just today, he wrote three posts on Truth Social:
- 1) UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!

He is an easy target, but is safe there – We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now. But we don’t want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, and plenty of it, but it doesn’t compare to American made, conceived, and manufactured “stuff.” Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA.
