President Donald Trump today sharply criticized media coverage of the conflict with Iran, accusing news organizations of undermining the United States by suggesting that Tehran’s military was performing effectively against American forces.

In a post published on Truth Social, Trump blasted what he described as “Fake News” reporting on the war and claimed such coverage was helping Iran.

“When the Fake News says that the Iranian enemy is doing well, Militarily, against us, it’s virtual TREASON in that it is such a false, and even preposterous, statement,” Trump wrote. “They are aiding and abetting the enemy!”

Trump argued that reports portraying Iran as resilient were giving Tehran “false hope” and accused critics of rooting against America.

“These are American cowards that are rooting against our Country,” he wrote.

The president also claimed that Iran’s military infrastructure had been effectively wiped out during the conflict.

“Iran had 159 ships in their Navy — Every single ship is now resting at the bottom of the sea,” Trump stated. “They have no Navy, their Air Force is gone, all Technology is gone, their ‘leaders’ are no longer with us, and the Country is an Economic Disaster.”

Trump concluded the post with another broadside against his detractors, writing: “Only Losers, Ingrates, and Fools are able to make a case against America!”
