The President of the United States has been called a “total pig” following a recent move that appeared to “expose his own lies”. Following Donald Trump’s address from the Oval Office where he took questions, a particular subject he discussed seemed to capture people’s attention.

He addressed the war in Iran and its potential impact on people’s wallets. When asked whether people should anticipate elevated gas prices, his response triggered quite a reaction, as he initially stated he “didn’t know” what would happen before making what many considered a significant misstep.

This comes just after Trump was deemed “demented”. He faced criticism from people after he was allegedly caught “snuggling” with Natalie Harp.

Aaron Rupar posted a clip of Trump speaking at the Oval Office, highlighting one specific remark that was made. Trump went on to say: “As soon as that war ends, inflation is going to be eradicated totally.”

The statement immediately sparked discussion, with many people quick to make the same observation. Several expressed disbelief at the words that came out of his mouth.

One social media user was swift to highlight his apparent lies, writing: “I thought it wasn’t a war. I thought it had ended like 37 times already.”

Another added: “What war? I thought it was a ‘conflict’. This pig.”

A third replied: “I thought the war did end? Or so he’s claimed off and on for the past six months.”

Meanwhile, a fourth commented: “Wait, isn’t this the war Trump already said he won? Trump has reached the part where his previous lie is arguing with his current lie.”

One more also responded: “Trump, is it a war, or an excursion?? Can’t keep all your lies straight anymore.”

Many people appeared to highlight the same concern. Trump seemed to characterize the ongoing conflict in Iran as a “war”.

This stands in stark contrast to statements he has made previously. When Trump initiated his military action against Iran, he originally characterized it as an “excursion” that would only span a few weeks.

However, months later, and it has turned into a nightmare for countless people. It’s affected the Iranian people, along with millions of others who reside throughout the Middle East.

Additionally, consumers worldwide are now grappling with increased costs. This is likely what sparked such a significant wave of criticism to Trump’s remarks.

This isn’t the first occasion Trump has faced condemnation recently either. According to reports, he was recently described as the “worst President ever”.
