I'm not sure what's going on medically right there, but he did seem to say, I could use this shit. Now, he continued to crash out in the Oval Office when talking about the catastrophic war in Iran. I guess the purpose of this press conference was supposed to be to talk about reducing prescription drug prices, but then he started talking about the war in Iran, his catastrophic and unlawful war in Iran. And then Donald Trump started saying, I deserve so much credit. I saved eight young women, beautiful young women. I saved the young women. As he's covering up the Epstein files, he's created a fictitious story where he believes he saved eight young girls in Iran and that he deserves credit for that.

Or the military operation, whatever you want to call it. And they're coming to us. The problem they have is they are very disorganized right now. Well, now, yesterday, and I was very pleased with this, eight young women were going to be executed yesterday afternoon at 6 o'clock. And I asked them, call it a favor or call it just a moral request that they not be executed. And they came back with an answer that they won't be executed. They're going to release. It was protesting. eight beautiful young women, very young women. And they were the pictures in the paper. And it's been a story for a little while.

How did Trump address the war in Iran during his press conference?

Unknown 1:42
And I saw that and I said, let's see if we can save them. And there were it was very nice what happened. So they're not going to be there. What they're doing is, as you know, they're releasing four of them very shortly and they're Got to keep four of them in jail for a period of one month and release them. So they won't be executed. Yeah, please.
Donald Trump 2:01
And then Donald Trump is asked, so how much longer are you going to wait? How long is this war going to take? Trump's like, Vietnam lasted 18 years. Be quiet. Donald, you dodged the draft five separate times and made up that you had bone spurs. But here's what he says. Play this clip.
Ben Meiselas 2:19
On the war with Iran, how long are you willing to wait until you get a unified response?
Unknown 2:23
Don't rush me, Jeff. You know, guys like you, you want to say, oh, so we were in Vietnam like for 18 years. We were in Iraq for many, many years. We were in for all the, I don't like to say World War II because that was a biggie, but we were four and a half, almost five years in World War II. We were in the Korean War for seven years. I've been doing this for six weeks and their military is totally defeated. They're outside of the little, Wiseguy ships, I call them the Wiseguy ships, the little boats that they have running around with guns in them. We'll take them out too when we see them.
Donald Trump 3:03
So there are more questions like, give us a timeline, man. Give us a timeline. He's like, it's only been 5.5 weeks.

What unusual claims did Trump make about saving young women?

Donald Trump 3:10
He just like makes up times. And her reporter's like, no, it's actually been two months. And you said it would last four to six weeks. And so now it seems like it's never going to end. And he's like, what a disgraceful question you're asking here to play this clip.
Unknown 3:22
We have no pressure. It's only guys like you with a question like that about what's your time. We've been doing it for five and a half weeks.
Ben Meiselas 3:31
It's been eight weeks that the U.S. now has been involved with Iran. You had initially said it would be four to six weeks.
Unknown 3:36
Well, I hope that, but I also took a little break. I gave them a break.
Donald Trump 3:39
And then Donald Trump's like, look, if we ended the war right now, it would be a tremendous success already. Think about it. We control the Strait of Hormuz. You don't. You're delusional. You're literally a psychotic human. We do not control the Strait of Hormuz. What the hell are you talking about? Play this clip.
Unknown 3:54
a break. And remember this. I want to make the best deal. I could make a deal right now. Do you know that if I left right now, we had a tremendous success. It would take them 20 years to rebuild.
