Trump launched a fiery attack on major American media organizations and political opponents in a strongly worded statement posted on his social media platform, accusing them of being biased against the United States and his administration.<\/p>\n<p>In the statement, Trump argued that even in a hypothetical scenario where Iran completely surrendered militarily to the United States, sections of the American media would still portray the situation as a failure for America and a victory for Tehran.<\/p>\n<p>The president specifically targeted publications and networks including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal \u2014 which he mockingly referred to as the \u201cChina Street Journal\u201d \u2014 and CNN. He accused them of deliberately undermining U.S. achievements and promoting what he described as \u201cfake news.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s statement read in part that if Iran were to surrender, acknowledge the destruction of its Navy and Air Force, and formally sign \u201cDocuments of Surrender,\u201d the media would still claim that Iran had achieved a \u201cMasterful and Brilliant Victory\u201d over the United States.<\/p>\n<p>The remarks reflect Trump\u2019s long-running criticism of mainstream media outlets, which he has frequently accused of political bias and unfair coverage throughout his political career. He also renewed attacks on Democrats \u2014 whom he referred to as \u201cDumacrats\u201d \u2014 claiming that both political opponents and media organizations have \u201ctotally lost their way\u201d and \u201cgone absolutely CRAZY.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The statement comes amid continuing political tensions in Washington and ongoing debates over U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, particularly regarding Iran and regional security issues.<\/p>\n<p>Political analysts note that Trump has consistently used aggressive rhetoric against media institutions to energize his political base, portraying himself as fighting against what he describes as an entrenched political and media establishment.<\/p>\n<p>Neither Iranian officials nor the named media organizations immediately responded publicly to Trump\u2019s comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump Blasts Media Coverage on Iran, Claims Critics Would Spin Even Total U.S. Victory as Defeat. &nbsp; WASHINGTON, D.C.: &nbsp; US President Donald J.
