President Donald Trump raged at one of the Wall Street Journal’s editorial board writers on Tuesday in a new Truth Social post.
Trump directly addressed Elliot Kaufman of the WSJ’s editorial board in the post and a recent op-ed he wrote titled “The Iranians Take Trump for a Sucker.” He argued that the war in Iran has been effectively won because the U.S. has decimated Iran’s political and military leadership.
Kaufman argued in the editorial that the Iranians had “swindled” Trump three times by promising to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and then closing it again to extract more concessions from the U.S.
“An IDIOT on The Wall Street Journal’s Editorial Board, named Elliot Kaufman, just wrote an Op Ed entitled, ‘The Iranians Take Trump for a Sucker,’” Trump wrote. “Really? For 47 years, they have killed our people, and many others, and taken advantage of every President, except me — And what did I give to them, a Country in tatters!”
“Other Presidents did nothing to stop them, a BLIGHT on the Office of the Presidency! But despite all of this, I have a MORON on the Editorial Board of The Wall Street Journal writing about me being taken for a ‘sucker,’” Trump added. “Iran certainly doesn’t think so! Neither does anyone else. I guess Rupert Murdoch told him to write it this way, because The Wall Street Journal has lost its way, no longer required reading, just another failing political ‘RAG!’”
