Trump Celebrated Huge News That is a Direct Result of the Iran Deal Democrats Swore Would Never Happen

Democrats spent four months swearing Trump's Iran deal would never work.

He signed it Wednesday night at the Palace of Versailles – and by Thursday morning the numbers were in.

What those numbers showed just made every Democrat who doubted him look like a fool.

Trump Signs the Deal at the Palace of Versailles

Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian put their names to the 14-point memorandum of understanding Wednesday evening as French President Emmanuel Macron hosted the two leaders for a state dinner at the palace. When Trump's pen hit the paper, Macron called out "bravo." Trump then pointed one finger down and one finger up – oil falling, stocks rising.

He wasn't wrong. The stock market hit a record high. Oil prices tumbled. Americans who were paying $4.53 a gallon last month are now paying $4.07.

That's not a talking point. That's the scoreboard.

The agreement ends nearly four months of war, reopens the Strait of Hormuz, and locks both sides into final negotiations over the next 60 days.

Trump Fires Back at the Doubters

Not everyone was celebrating.

Louisiana Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy came out hardest against the deal, saying Ronald Reagan is "rolling over in his grave." Cassidy argued that Iran's nuclear ambitions were not dismantled and that Tehran learned threatening the Strait of Hormuz is an effective weapon.

Chuck Schumer, never one to miss a camera, told reporters the 14-point agreement makes it look like Iran won on just about every point.

Trump heard all of it – and fired back on Truth Social Thursday morning.

"These fools, who think I haven't been tough enough on Iran, when the Stock Market Just Hit A RECORD HIGH, and Oil prices are 'tumbling' down, are either jealous, bad people, or stupid," Trump posted. "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!"

What Trump Actually Achieved

The doubters won't put these numbers on the screen.

Four months ago, oil was at $115 a barrel and climbing toward $117. The Strait of Hormuz – the waterway that carries roughly one-fifth of the world's oil supply – was effectively closed. Energy prices drove a Consumer Price Index spike to its highest level in more than three years, with energy accounting for over 60% of that monthly increase.

Trump put a stop to all of it. He threatened to bomb every bridge in Iran and destroy every power plant if Tehran didn't deal. Iran dealt.

Now Hormuz reopens, sanctions come off as Iran meets its obligations, and a $300 billion reconstruction framework positions American contractors and allied nations to profit from the rebuild. Trump kept the threat live at the signing table too – "If you don't adhere to the agreement, I don't want to do that, but we're going to bomb the hell out of you."

That's not weakness. That's a president who used maximum force to produce maximum results.

The Obama comparison the media keeps reaching for doesn't survive basic scrutiny. Obama handed Iran billions in cash, got a temporary nuclear delay, and received no military ceasefire and no Hormuz reopening. Trump took Iran to war, extracted a full ceasefire, secured Hormuz, and got a deal signed by both heads of state with the Pakistani prime minister as witness.

Trump has already told Iran exactly what happens if they fail the next test – and they know he means it.

The critics calling this a surrender are either working for the other team or they just can't stand to watch him win again.
