Trump news at glance: US president talks regime change and ‘MIGA’ after Iran strikes

 Trump campaigned on the promise of ‘no more wars’ but the US is now embroiled in another Middle Eastern conflict – key US politics stories from Sunday 22 June

During his presidential campaign, Donald Trump campaigned on the promise of “no more wars” but global events have radically changed his views.

In what could be his most consequential day as president yet, Trump decided to bomb three Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday in an operation he deemed “a spectacular military success”. Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities, he boasted, have been “completely and totally obliterated.”

In a post to the Truth Social platform on Sunday, Trump took it a step further by addressing the issue of regime change in Iran, applying his Maga rhetoric to the Middle East.

“It’s not politically correct to use the term, ‘Regime Change,’ but if the current Iranian Regime is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN, why wouldn’t there be a Regime change??? MIGA!!!” he wrote.
