They crank the jets about an hour prior to takeoff and then launch into the daylight doing their pre-flight checks, and as the kids say, "Lock in and prepare to go to war."

It will be at the president's choosing, ultimately, where we say, "We've achieved what we need to on behalf of the American people to ensure our security."

So no time set on that, but we're very much on track.

The Gulf States have stepped up incredibly. In fact, Iran’s reckless attempt to strike civilian infrastructure and other targets has brought countries, who might not have been as fully engaged before, squarely into our orbit.

We’re proud to be defending alongside them and standing with them.

You name it, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and others who have been right there with us.

They still retain some capability.

Name the Islamist enemy, whether Sunni or Shia, because this is a Shia regime, but Iran has been willing to harbor both as long as that group is willing to try to kill Americans.

The enemy of their enemy has been their friend in the Islamist world.

So Iran, whether it's Iraq, Afghanistan, or elsewhere around the world, has been targeting Americans.

And what President Trump would not tolerate is a regime of that nature being closer and closer to nuclear capabilities — a capability they have said they would want to use.

It's been across every theater that Iran has been a threat to America, and sometimes we have to remind folks of that.

Thank goodness we have a commander-in-chief who, on behalf of this country, has internalized that and said, "Hey, we're going to do something about it."

$200 billion — that number could move.

It takes money to kill bad guys. We need to be properly funded for what's been done, for what we may have to do in the future.

We're also still dealing with the environment that Joe Biden created, which was depleting those stockholds and not sending them to our own military, but to Ukraine.

Every time we reach back and look at any sort of challenge we have, it goes back to “send it to Ukraine.”

We think these munitions are better spent in our interest.

The United States military controls the fate of Iran.

In the coming days, we may unsanction the Iranian oil that’s on the water.

We will see if that eventually becomes a U.S. asset.

The regime is in collapse and the people are starting to turn against them.

We are starting to see defections.

UAE air defences are currently responding to incoming missile and drone threats from Iran.

Our response to Israel's attack on our infrastructure employed FRACTION of our power.

The ONLY reason for restraint was respect for requested de-escalation.

ZERO restraint if our infrastructures are struck again.

Any end to this war must address damage to our civilian sites.

I never in my wildest ‌dreams ⁠would have thought that Qatar would be - Qatar and the region - in such an ⁠attack, especially from a brotherly Muslim country in the month of ⁠Ramadan, attacking us in this way.

We may have to declare force majeure on LNG contracts for up to 5 years, affecting Italy, Belgium, Korea, and China due to the two damaged ‌trains.

I mean, these are long-term contracts that we have to declare force majeure. We already declared, but that was a shorter term. Now it's whatever the period is.
