Trump says ‘treasonous scum’ are warning about US munitions shortage

“They do it because they would rather see the United States LOSE a War that we’re easily WINNING, than see me WIN!” he stated.

In a follow-up post addressed to “the treasonous SCUM that refuses to accurately report” on the Iran war, the president claimed that the United States has “virtually unlimited amounts of Mid to High Grade Ammunition, far more than we could ever use for this, or for any other War.”

“We are producing Munitions at levels never seen before. We are stockpiling and preparing for any contingency that could happen,” he continued. “We are taking them for ourselves, the U.S.A., rather than selling them to others, but the sales to Allies will soon again, begin.”

He also blamed the Biden administration for providing Ukraine defense aid “at no cost to them” and said Biden gave more munitions to Ukraine than Trump had used in Iran.

“Hundreds of Billions of Dollars was given to Ukraine and NATO, free of charge, that Europe would have paid for — If they were only asked,” he concluded. “We will be asking for that money, though somewhat belatedly!”

TRUMP SAYS MIDTERM ELECTIONS WON’T IMPACT TIMELINE FOR WAR WITH IRAN

Despite the president’s claims, Robert Wilkie, a former undersecretary of war for personnel and readiness and the secretary of veterans affairs from Trump’s first term, told the Washington Examiner earlier this week that U.S. armament levels were a concern for the president’s transition team ahead of his January 2025 inauguration.

“It’s not new, and he inherited a disaster,” he told the Washington Examiner in an interview, noting that the president has taken actions to try to ramp up defense production. “We’re in a rough spot, but it’s a spot that can be corrected.”
