Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) put a baffling spin on Trump's Iran War deal, but he didn't get off scot-free.Although details of Trump's Iran War deal remain murky, it's already being criticized for reportedly giving up a $300 billion reconstruction fund. Graham told reporters on Tuesday, however, what he believed the deal achieved."If this thing goes through, we've opened up the straits," the GOP senator said. "The war will be in a permanent ceasefire, and we'll try to get a nuclear deal with Iran."On X, commentators dogged Graham as they pointed out that these achievements were what was already in place before Trump started the war."We've achieved opening the Strait that was open before the war that Trump lost," wrote Ben Rhodes, a former Obama foreign policy advisor and political writer."The big achievement of the war, according to Lindsey Graham, is that things will hopefully go back to the way they were before the war," MeidasTouch, a political news network, piled on."Trump started the fighting and is responsible for the closing of the Strait," agreed Norman Ornstein, a political scientist and contributing editor for The Atlantic. "So he is giving Iran tons of money, draining $50 billion or more from taxpayers, depleting our vital stocks, bloodshed from our military, oil, helium, and fertilizer prices up, to return to status quo ante.""Not only were the straits open before Trump initiated combat operations, but the U.S. could have very likely prevented Iran from closing them & clearly was not able to/did not prioritize that part of mission," senior national security reporter Zachary Cohen wrote. "Now, Iran has demonstrated it can successfully close them."

The internet mocked President Donald Trump after photos and video footage showed him wandering off the stage among world leaders at the G7 summit in France on Tuesday.Trump was in Évian-les-Bains discussing the Iran agreement and during a family photo, he appeared to be somewhat disoriented, moving away from the group of dignitaries who tried to direct him back to the group. Another photo also revealed Trump needed a helping hand from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to climb a single step for the photo opportunity.Media and political commentators caught the moment and reacted to what they saw."Every picture tells a story," anti-Trump group The Lincoln Project wrote on X. "Trump seems dazed and confused at G7.""A confused Trump wanders off in the wrong direction and has to be guided back in front of G7 world leaders," the Democratic Party posted on X."WATCH: Here’s a very confusing Donald Trump wandering off in the wrong direction and had to be guided back in front of G7 world leaders. Does he actually know where he’s going?" Progressive social media commentator Lucas Sanders wrote on X."Trump starts wandering off in the wrong direction after a G7 photo and world leaders have to step in and redirect him," media organization MeidasTouch wrote on X."They almost had to issue a Silver Alert," investor and strategist Daniel Micovic wrote on X.Trump starts wandering off in the wrong direction after a G7 photo and world leaders have to step in and redirect him pic.twitter.com/ahFNRXIsYi— MeidasTouch (@MeidasTouch) June 16, 2026
