Trump Cites Record Stock High, Falling Oil Prices to Defend Iran Policy
President Trump defended his Iran policy on Truth Social, arguing that a record stock market high and falling oil prices prove his approach is working, and dismissed critics as jealous, bad, or stupid.
In a post on Truth Social, former President Donald Trump pushed back against criticism that he has not been tough enough on Iran. He highlighted that the stock market has just hit a record high and that oil prices are tumbling, framing these as evidence of successful policy.
Trump called his detractors "jealous, bad people, or stupid," and closed with his signature slogan, "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!" The comments come amid ongoing debate over US-Iran relations and economic conditions.
