President Donald Trump went after Democrats who have criticized Operation Epic Fury in Iran, calling them “sick” and “crazy” and claiming their outrage is purely political.
In remarks circulating online, Trump argued that his opponents would attack any action he takes—no matter what it is.
“The fact is, whatever I do, they will be on the opposite side,” Trump said, adding that Democrats are “only complaining BECAUSE I DID IT.”
The comments come as the Iran operation continues to dominate headlines and trigger fresh debate in Washington over strategy, oversight, and what happens next.
Supporters say the operation shows strength and deterrence. Critics argue the administration owes the public—and Congress—clear answers about objectives, risks, and the endgame.
Either way, Trump’s message was blunt: he sees the backlash as a partisan reflex, not a serious dispute over policy.
