Things The President Said Today: July 27, 2026

  • "We're making this country safe because we're not going to let lunatics have a nuclear weapon."
  • "We've destroyed their navy. We've destroyed their air force. We've destroyed their leadership. We've destroyed their anti-aircraft weaponry."
  • "Their drones are being made at a rate of about 7%. We destroyed most of their drone manufacturing capability, their missile manufacturing capability."
  • "For 47 to 50 years they have been talking and all they do is tap everyone along. They were the bully of the Middle East and they were the bully of us."
  • "What a stupid country this is."
  • "I think there's a good chance that something could happen. And if it does, good. If it doesn't, we go back to doing what we were doing two days ago."
  • "The only reason they want to meet is because we've been hitting them very hard… Without what we did, they wouldn't even be talking to us."
  • "Please don't, drop, don't shoot."
  • "I have plenty of time. Plenty of time. We're having good talks, so we'll see what happens."
  • "We're being very nice to a lot of countries that would not survive without us… And you know who wouldn't survive without us? Israel… If I didn't get involved and if I didn't blow up those nuclear — essentially soon-to-be nuclear weapons — to dust, as I call it, Israel would have been terminated."
  • "We have a lot of ammunition, different types… When I left, the cupboards were full. As soon as I left, they gave a lot of it to Ukraine — numbers that nobody's ever seen before."
  • "We're going to use Iran's money to pay for the damage they did."
  • "We are in very deep talks with Iran: If they don't work out, we will go back to very strong military action."
  • "Not much time. Either it goes fast or not at all."
  • "All of the people that deal with Iran asked me: 'Don't fire.'"
  • "Nothing gained, nothing lost."
