What makes Trump's Wednesday speech significant is that it was his first address to the nation since his administration joined hands with Israel and launched a war in Iran, a little over a month ago.

Soon after the start of the war, Trump continued to claim that the US had already won the war and refused to take responsibility for the economic fallout that had spread across the world.
In his speech, Trump gave an operational update on the progress of Operation Epic Fury, while highlighting the military’s “success in achieving all of its stated goals”.
This is a developing story.
