"Trump was speaking with reporters Thursday evening near the National Mall. When asked about U.S. strikes against Iranian military facilities and the status of the ceasefire, Trump said that the U.S. "blew them away" and threatened "one big glow" if Iran doesn't come to an agreement with the U.S. "They trifled with us today. We blew them away. They trifle. They call that a trifle," Trump rambled. "I'll let you know when there's no ceasefire. You won't have to know. If there's no ceasefire, you're not going to have to know. You'll have to look at one big glow coming out of Iran. And they'd better sign their agreement fast.""
"Q: After today's strikes, is the ceasefire with Iran still on?TRUMP: Yeah it is. They trifled with us today. We blew them away. If there's no ceasefire, you'll see one big glow coming out of Iran. They better sign an agreement fast.- Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-05-08T00:44:27.057Z"
"Moments later, a journalist - identified online as ABC News reporter Rachel Scott - asked him why he was spending so much time focused on decorating and landscaping projects. The question was timely, since Trump was ostensibly taking questions by the Reflecting Pool to highlight preparations for the semiquincentennial celebrations. But Trump was outraged that anyone would even question him for worrying more about his ballroom than rising gas prices, calling it "such a stupid question." "You can understand dirt, baby, better than I can," Trump"
Trump responded to questions about U.S. strikes against Iranian military facilities and the ceasefire by saying the U.S. “blew them away.” He warned that if Iran did not reach an agreement, there would be “one big glow” coming out of Iran and urged Iran to sign quickly. He also reacted angrily to a question about time spent on decorating and landscaping projects tied to semiquincentennial preparations. He called the question “such a stupid question” and made a remark about dirt, framing his focus on ballroom-related concerns against rising gas prices.
