Trump says Iran 'got away with murder' for 47 years

Jun 20, 2026, 12:15 GMT+1

US President Donald Trump said Iran had "got away with 'murder' for 47 years" until he took office, in a Truth Social post on Saturday.

"Then it all changed," Trump wrote, saying Iran had been "completely defeated militarily" in the war.

Trump said former President Barack Obama had given Iran "billions in cash" and had failed to use the US military to curb what he called "the world's number one sponsor of terror."

He said Iranian leaders had "ZERO respect" for Obama and former President Joe Biden, whom he called "a weak and ineffective leader."

"AMERICA IS BACK!!!" Trump wrote.
