Trump: Israel never talked me into the war with Iran,
Truth Social ^ | April 20, 2026 | President Trump

Posted on 04/20/2026 10:06:21 AM PDT by McGruff

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

Israel never talked me into the war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did. I watch and read the FAKE NEWS Pundits and Polls in total disbelief. 90% of what they say are lies and made up stories, and the polls are rigged, much as the 2020 Presidential Election was rigged. Just like the results in Venezuela, which the media doesn’t like talking about, the results in Iran will be amazing - And if Iran’s new leaders (Regime Change!) are smart, Iran can have a great and prosperous future! President DJT

If anyone was motivating anyone, it was Saudi Arabia.

You mean when Trump told Saudi Arabia what to do, and what not to do?

IMHO it's because:
1) Israel being attacked meant Israel would be a military ally against Iran. We wouldn't go at it alone. And
2) It took a year to build back up the US military after 4 years of trans/Biden military.

Trump makes it very clear, the issue is No Nuclear Weapons for Iran.

Now watch Bibi and his pals talk him into demanding something more.

Alex Jones has gone the Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, nutcase road. He’s calling for Americans to turn flags upside down because of Trump. What a 🤡 world we live in…😔

Why does Donald Trump feel has to deny this?

You mean you don’t think the simultaneous action by Israel and the US in the attacks on the very same night that resulted in no interference over targets, no mutual targets, well coordinated elimination of radar and air defense systems, elimination of leadership and so forth were just coincidence? Huh. Interesting theory. How did you come up with that?

simple: enough enriched uranium for 11 nuclear weapons and ICBMS capable of reaching all European capitals, at the very least. this decision made itself.

Headline...
Trump: Israel never talked me into the war with Iran.

What is it you don’t comprehend?

They AGREED to attack. Nobody tells the U.S. President what he is going to do.

Why do leftists and anti-semites feel the need to bear false witness against Trump?

President Trump should just say "Asked and answered."

The only reason he keeps making these statements is that the LAAP-dog media keeps raising it hoping that he'd say something that gives them another news cycle to bash him.

Exactly. Perhaps there is a confession in the denial. Perhaps there isn’t.

By now - and I say this as a Trump supporter - we should all know by now Trump is so arrogant nobody and I mean nobody talks him into anything. Convince? Maybe. Talk into? Nope.

Cooperation does not mean one side talked the other into anything.
