Trump Tells UK’s Starmer Thanks But No Thanks on Last-Minute Iran Help: War Is ‘Already Won!’

President Donald Trump told British Prime Minister Keir Starmer his help is not needed in the war against Iran on Saturday, saying “We don’t need people that join wars after we’ve already won!”

The president essentially told Starmer “thanks, but no thanks” for considering sending the United Kingdom’s two active aircraft carriers to the Middle East to help the U.S. and Israel with Operation Epic Fury.

Trump posted the following on Truth Social about it:

The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East. That’s OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don’t need them any longer — But we will remember. We don’t need people that join Wars after we’ve already won! President DONALD J. TRUMP

His post came shortly after the BBC reported the HMS Prince of Wales was “placed on advanced readiness” and could be deployed in a matter of days.

The UK has been reluctant to back the U.S. attacks on Iran so far, with British Secretary of State for Defense John Healey declining multiple times to say whether his country supported the U.S. and Israel’s strikes earlier this week. Starmer said his country would allow the U.S. to use certain British military bases, after initially blocking the Trump administration from doing so last week.



Turns out war is bad for the stock market.
