President Donald Trump addressed an uneasy nation on Wednesday as the United States’ war with Iran entered its second month. He used the prime time slot to briefly address skyrocketing gas prices, outline indeterminate next steps and flaunt his victories in the conflict thus far.

Trump opened with the positive, claiming the U.S. already seized “overwhelming victories” against Iran. The President said that Iran’s navy and air force are “in ruins” and that most of its leadership has been killed. He also claimed that the nation’s ability to launch missiles has been “dramatically curtailed,” and that its weapons and factories are “being blown to pieces.”
