Trump’s ‘mangled’ Iran speech torn to shreds after he spent much of it attacking Obama

President Donald Trump responded to Iran’s missile retaliation to the assassination of one of its top military leaders — and many viewers wondered what drugs he’d taken.
The president vowed to keep nuclear weapons away from Iran but did not threaten further military strikes at this time, much to the relief of social media users.

Trump also regularly mangled several words and constantly sniffled during the speech, which led to jokes that he must have taken an excess quantity of Adderall.
Check out some of the reactions to Trump’s speech below.
