'I am killing them': Trump makes deranged 'ruthless scumbags' late-night Truth Social post

Donald Trump has issued a late-night Truth Social post implying further action will be taken in Iran.

The president has not backed down from the war with Iran after a bombing campaign earlier this month with Israel. Trump took to Truth Social and issued a deranged post in the middle of the night, warning that there would be more damage to come. He also ripped into the New York Times, with the president attempting to set the record straight on wartime rhetoric.

He wrote, "We are totally destroying the terrorist regime of Iran, militarily, economically, and otherwise, yet, if you read the Failing New York Times, you would incorrectly think that we are not winning. Iran’s Navy is gone, their Air Force is no longer, missiles, drones and everything else are being decimated, and their leaders have been wiped from the face of the earth.

"We have unparalleled firepower, unlimited ammunition, and plenty of time - Watch what happens to these deranged scumbags today. They’ve been killing innocent people all over the world for 47 years, and now I, as the 47th President of the United States of America, am killing them.

"What a great honor it is to do so! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP."

His post regarding the Iran war comes shortly after refusing to speak about his failed attempt at winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump has eyed up the peace award for years but has yet to receive the Nobel nod.

In a Thursday interview with the Washington Examiner, Trump seemed to have cast aside his hopes for the peace prize, saying he had "no idea" if the war in Iran would "get him over the line" with the Nobel Committee.

"I don't know," the president sulked. "I'm not interested in it. No, I don't talk about the Nobel Prize."
