What was the point of that? He said nothing new and the uncertainty continues

Agreed.
Trump needs an audience for feedback and work a crowd or he needs to shorten the speech.
In the TikTok and Facebook Shorts of the world, he needed to keep it under 5 minutes. He talked for what, about 20 minutes.

Started with we are oil dependent then said high prices are due to Iran.
You mean oil independent, but both are true. We are net independent, we produce enough to power our country, but we also sell a ton, so we are exposed to the world’s commodity pricing. If we stopped selling outside the US, we would be truly independent

Oil futures bumped $3 since the speech started.
Winning!

Stock and oil markets are reacting negatively to the speech, clearly expecting a definitive exit timeline to be announced when it wasn’t.

Grok, write a primatime speech justifying the Iran War in the rhetorical style of Donald Trump.

It’s not the mic, it’s him. He’s either sick or worn out. Which is perfectly understandable at his age

Calling out Obama for the tons of cash he sent to Iran in an attempt to buy their friendship/loyalty. The media is going to be livid over that.
Because it mischaracterizes JCPOA & reminds people of his handling of JCPOA in one fell swoop.
This board loves to pretend that the “funding” Iran received through JCPOA was some sort of cash dowry & not release of assets seized under sanction.
Trump lifted sanctions on Iran and Russia and also is letting other countries pay Iran $2M per ship… for safe passage from countries not named USA to countries not named USA. Called it “20 free tankers of oil.” …Now re-read the previous paragraph.

Coincidentally its the same time frame Israel has suggested it will take them to reach the Litani River in Lebanon. The land they had hoped to capture for their Greater Israel Project. Looks like we are just providing cover for them until they can reach this final objective.

Sure was. Iran is completely decimated, however they just need to be decimated for 2-3 more weeks. Or as Don says, blown em to the stone ages.

Point of the speech was to lay bare for all the world to see that there is no plan. There has never been a plan. Trump immolated his legacy and the prestige of the American military for nothing. Absolutely nothing. To say nothing of the 2,000 innocent civilians in Iran who died for this great nothing.

All KSA and UAE have to do is not let the US use military bases and they wouldn’t be getting hit

Trump really didn’t say anything new, not sure why this was needed. The Dems are going to cry no matter what but we have already popped the top to this beer so now we gotta drink it and finish this off strong. We need to take another layer or two off the top of their leadership that remains breathing and we need 24/7 ISR to hunt down their remaining 3,000-5,000 ballistic missiles then watch the nuclear sites and if they ever try to dig out the material we hit them again. We have used 25% of our entire stocks of Tomahawks so the vast majority of the rest of the campaign needs to be conventional bombs with JDAM kits.
