As the world watched on expecting an update on whether Donald Trump would order his military to support Israeli attacks on Iran, the US President instead took the chance to make a rude penis joke. He stepped out on the grass in front of the White House after a day of Situation Room briefings and delivered the crude joke.
After confirming he has yet to make up his mind on America’s military supporting Israel, Trump showed off two 100-foot flag poles that he’s putting up outside the White House. The poles will stand on the North and South Lawns. Trump added that they’re “tapered and have a nice top” and that “the rope goes inside” them.
As reported by the Mirror, the US President stood in front of the cameras showing off the enormous pole. He then made a very crude penis joke.
“Let’s have a good – they call it a lifting,” he said, “They also use another word but I’m not gonna use that word. It says with an E. Do you know what the word is? If I ever used it I would be run out of town. Alright. So enjoy it.”
On the more pressing situation between Iran and Israel, Trump said his military could intervene. However, despite spending most of the day in meetings, he could not give a definitive answer to questions.
Asked if he would order the US military to strike Iranian nuclear faciliies, Trump said: “I may do it, I may not do it. Nobody knows what I’m going to do. Iran’s got a lot of trouble.”
While some of his supporters are calling on him to stand with Israel, others are urging him not to get involved in foreign wars.
However, Trump’s posts on Truth Social overnight were far from de-escalatory. He posted: “We know exactly where the so-called “Supreme Leader” is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there – We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now.”
He also posted “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!” and claimed to have “complete and total control of the skies over Iran”. Trump added that Iran’s that “good sky trackers and other defensive equipment” were no match for America’s own equipment.
