Trump Tells UK's Starmer Thanks But No Thanks on Last-Minute Iran Help: War Is 'Already Won!'
President Donald Trump told British Prime Minister Keir Starmer his help is not needed in the war against Iran on Saturday, saying “We don’t need people that join wars after we’ve already won!”
The president essentially told Starmer “thanks, but no thanks” for considering sending the United Kingdom’s two active aircraft carriers to the Middle East to help the U.S. and Israel with Operation Epic Fury.
Trump posted the following on Truth Social about it:
The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East. That’s OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don’t need them any longer — But we will remember. We don’t need people that join Wars after we’ve already won! President DONALD J. TRUMP
His post came shortly after the BBC reported the HMS Prince of Wales was “placed on advanced readiness” and could be deployed in a matter of days.
