The information the president receives tends to emphasize U.S. successes, with little detail about Iranian actions, one official said.
Each day since the start of the war in Iran, U.S. military officials compile a video update for Donald Trump that shows video of the biggest, most successful strikes on Iranian targets over the previous 48 hours, three current U.S. officials and a former U.S. official said.
The daily montage typically runs for about two minutes, sometimes longer, the officials said. One described each daily video as a series of clips of “stuff blowing up.”
The highlight reel of U.S. Central Command bombing Iranian equipment and military sites isn’t the only briefing Trump gets about the war. He’s also updated through conversations with top military and intelligence advisers, foreign leaders and news reports, the officials said.
What can we conceivably do? They have a gigantic military industrial complex, they’ve addicted our populations to their social media drugs, they have all the resources they could ever hope for and the means to take more by force. Just one or two countries making a stand wouldn’t be enough, it would have to be a concerted effort by the rest of the G20 and more to sanction the US and I just don’t see that happening, particularly when the risk is they will retaliate with military force or join forces with daddy Putin or Trump’s “Bored of Peace” evil dictator club, then what?
