Donald Trump Jr.'s 2024 boast about his father keeping America out of a conflict with Iran has resurfaced and triggered a wave of ridicule online. Read on to discover the full story!
In April 2024 Don Jr. posted on X claiming critics who warned Trump would start a war with Iran were wrong, praising his father's strength and leadership. That post reappeared this week with a sharp community note countering that Trump did order an attack on Iran on Feb. 28, 2026, and linking to a timeline of the ensuing conflict.
Social users tore into the old message, sharing sarcastic takes — from comments that it "aged poorly" to jokes comparing it to souring milk. The resurfaced post drew renewed attention as critics pointed to the 2026 timeline tied to the community note.
