Iran just humiliated the u.s. military with a 1955 fighter jet. A cold war-era F5 flew through America's "impenetrable" air defense system and bombed a base. We are currently on the F....35. This is cyber hacking with a fax machine and it worked.

Trump was told the image was “doctored” and responded by telling reporters he’s a doctor. Carolyn Leavitt is out here doing damage control while the president is having a completely separate conversation. This is fine.
