President Donald Trump intensified his rhetoric against Iran on Monday, declaring the country a "Failed Nation" on Truth Social, claiming it has no effective military, no currency, and is unable to pay its soldiers or police. Trump asserted Iranian inflation had reached 300%, though official data from July shows annual inflation at 66%, with the IMF projecting 68.9% for 2026. The statement came amid the sharpest U.S.-Iran military escalation in weeks, including U.S. strikes on Iranian launchers on Larak Island and Iranian ballistic missile attacks toward U.S. bases in Jordan.
