Fired ABC Reporter Terry Moran: Trump's In a ‘Terrible Spot,' Iran’s Got…Speedboats!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelsein

ABC News fired correspondent Terry Moran last year, calling his social media post describing President Trump as a “world-class hater” a “clear violation of ABC News policies.”

One year later, looks like Moran's still rooting against Trump—and America. Appearing on The Weekend on MS NOW, Moran did his best Lord Haw-Haw impression, painting the bleakest possible picture of the war with Iran.

Moran warned that the war “isn’t anywhere near over,” because Iran still retains the ability to strike back.

“They can still pop off drones and missiles,” Moran said ominously. “They’ve got speedboats.”

Speedboats: scaree!

All the U.S. has are two aircraft carriers in the region, a third reportedly poised to enter, along with multiple other warships.

All Democrats and most of big media does. They'd rather have a disaster for Trump than a positive outcome for the United States. They'd rather have Iran with nuclear weapons than for Trump to be the one to make sure it doesn't.

Oh, and by the way, my Tagline is still accurate.

This is more leftist wishful thinking than an actual threat.

Nice attempt at a Jedi mind trick there, Terry.

BSNOW viewers may be weak minded enough to buy into them but not Trump.

Those speedboats sunk a carrier in the navy’s own wargame simulation.

So my 27 foot Chaparral with twin Suzuki 400 horsepower engines is a battleship?? Hmmm... The only thing I battle is fish!!

I wonder if my uncle's ski boat is a battleship, or my cousin's bass boat...

Is difficult for me to understand why someone hates the United States and American Citizens.

I checked out this video on youtube yesterday...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8Sff3ZtNrM

Beyond Military. Was really interesting.
So iran launched a couple dozen drone bombs at the carrier group. The incoming were spotted by a Hawkeye that shared the radar track so the entire Aegis group had the same picture. The targets were tracked by Mark 45 Cannons, and Phalanx Guns, the balance were targeted by some new focused Microwave weapon called METEOR. Basically delivering high-energy bursts of electromagnetic energy. Disrupt or destroy the electronics in the targets. They lose power and fall into the water.

Then they traced back to the launchers and destroyed them with hellfires. It was impressive.

“Is difficult for me to understand why someone hates the United States and American Citizens.”

$$$$ What’s sad is that they don’t comprehend what life will be like for their children, grandchildren (especially the females) etc., when America falls to Islam. They will have the knowledge that they facilitated bring hell to America.
