BREAKING: Trump Had a Full Meltdown at Camp David Over His Own Iran War Falling Apart
Trump reportedly lost it on his own Defense Secretary at Camp David last week, and the reason says everything about how badly his Iran war is actually going.
Trump raged at Pete Hegseth during a Cabinet meeting after learning the military is facing extreme shortages of long distance guided missiles and interceptors, according to two sources who spoke to The Washington Post. Trump reportedly exploded that he thought the munitions problem “had been fixed,” furious that nobody had told him the truth.
Hegseth didn’t own it. He reportedly pointed the finger at his own deputy, Stephen Feinberg, who then got an angry call directly from Trump that same evening. Feinberg was reportedly threatened with being fired on the spot and had to scramble a late night “crisis” meeting with Pentagon brass just to survive the fallout.
The White House is denying the whole thing happened. But the timeline tells its own story. One source says the weapons crunch is a real reason Trump has quietly pulled back missile strikes on Iran over the past week, even while publicly claiming he “canceled” a massive new attack at Iran’s request. Iranian officials say no such talks were ever planned.
Hegseth spent the same week melting down publicly on social media, insisting reports that the U.S. has burned through nearly four fifths of its air defense interceptors were fake news, even as insiders say he was getting reamed out over those exact numbers behind closed doors.
Five months into this war, 18 American service members are dead and hundreds more injured. A new Marquette Law School poll found 75 percent of Americans now say the entire conflict simply wasn’t worth it.
Trump started this war. Now, by his own administration’s account, he’s throwing a fit because he can’t keep it running, and making sure everyone else takes the blame for it.- Really American
