President Donald Trump said Saturday that the media never covers his achievements, and that under his administration, Iran has become ruled by a 'gay dictator,' according to his remarks.
President Donald Trump continued his pattern of sharp rhetoric toward Iran on Saturday, saying the media fails to report his accomplishments and that Iran is now led by a 'gay dictator.' The remark follows a similar statement earlier Saturday, as The Zioneer reported, in which Trump described Iran as being run by a 'gay dictator' facing internal divisions.
Trump's latest comments come amid a broader campaign of verbal attacks on the Iranian regime, including assertions that Iran has no air force or navy, that the US naval blockade is very effective, and that Washington has been 'very nice and generous.' The president has repeatedly claimed that the media ignores his administration's successes against Iran.
The statement was reported by Israeli media and Telegram channels tracking the White House. No official transcript or video of the remarks has been released.
