'They want us to lose the war': Trump erupts over reports on 'damaged' US military assets [View all]

President Donald Trump erupted at multiple media outlets Saturday over their reporting on an Iranian strike on U.S. military assets in Saudi Arabia, insisting that the coverage was not only false, but was causing great “damage” to his administration’s war effort.

On Friday, The Wall Street Journal reported that five Air Force refueling planes in Saudi Arabia were struck by Iranian missiles, leaving them “damaged but not fully destroyed." The New York Times and other outlets had also reported as such.

Trump fiercely contested the reporting, arguing that not only were claims of the planes being “damaged” exaggerated, but that the media outlets in question were actively pushing for the United States to “lose the war.”
