It appears Donald Trump’s boasts that Iran’s nuclear abilities were “obliterated” after military strikes this past weekend may have been premature as an early U.S. intelligence assessment found the country’s nuclear program wasn’t destroyed but only set back by a few months.

They don’t know what the FUCK they’re doing can describe so much… pic.twitter.com/Ya9EQY5gqq
