On Monday, US President Donald Trump declared that the United States is 'winning a war by a lot' and criticized major American media outlets for what he termed misleading coverage of military operations. In a post on his social media platform, Trump praised the performance of the armed forces, claiming that reports from outlets like The New York Times and The Washington Post inaccurately suggest that the US is losing. He alleged that the opposing naval forces have been 'completely wiped out' and that their air force capabilities are severely diminished. Trump also noted that the ongoing US blockade is inflicting economic losses of approximately $500 million per day on the enemy. He asserted that the blockade would continue until a deal is reached, emphasizing that the US would not ease pressure prematurely. Furthermore, Trump accused parts of the media of being 'anti-America' and suggested they were supporting Iran, a claim he has made before. He concluded by stating that the situation is under control and the outcome is already determined.
