The war in Iran is not going well for Donald Trump, and although the president has always said things are going well, his speeches tell a different story.
Trump’s difficulties were announced before his trip, when he responded without comment to questions from White House journalists on the war in Iran. The questions focused on the US bombing of an Iranian school and the deaths of hundreds of children, and how Trump could declare the war a success if the regime remains in place.

The pump was set for Trump to go to Kentucky and let loose with a bit of Biden and Obama Derangement Syndrome as Trump seemed to be trying to inflate himself as much as he was trying to convince his fans that high gas prices and dead American troops are not a sign of failure, because, remember Joe Biden?
Trump said:
Give it to a foreign country, it is your enemy. Was that really stupid? But this deal, the Iran nuclear deal, gave them the right to have a nuclear weapon three years ago. If this agreement, if I didn’t end it, I would have ended it very quickly. If I didn’t end this agreement. They would have had nuclear weapons and this world would be different now.
A very different place, believe me.
And then Biden came along. He had no idea. He didn’t know what he was doing, but they, uh, they, really, what they did was incredible. Everything they did was wrong.
Trump was talking about the Iran nuclear deal, which did not give Iran the right to possess nuclear weapons. The agreement did the opposite. The goal was to ensure that Iran abandoned its nuclear ambitions, but Donald Trump broke that deal, and America is now at war because of his decision.
The president was starting to get going, as his broken brain started making things up about Joe Biden.
