On Thursday, Donald Trump addressed concerns regarding the state of U.S. military readiness during the conflict with Iran. In a statement posted to Truth Social, Trump asserted that the United States possesses "virtually unlimited" quantities of mid- to high-grade munitions. This statement was issued as a direct rebuttal to recent media reports suggesting that the Pentagon’s stockpiles are being rapidly depleted due to the intensity of the current military engagement.

In his post, Trump expressed strong hostility toward the media outlets reporting on potential supply constraints. He labeled the journalists responsible for these reports as "treasonous SCUM," arguing that such coverage is inaccurate and potentially harmful to national interests. While Trump maintains that the supply levels are robust, the reports he is criticizing suggest that the high volume of munitions usage in the region has placed significant strain on existing inventories. There is a clear disagreement between Trump’s assessment of "unlimited" supplies and the reports from various news organizations that indicate a tightening of available resources. The former president’s comments serve to reassure the public and military personnel of the country's capacity to sustain its current operations without interruption.
