Trump claimed the destruction of Iran's air defense and the death of Ayatollah Khamenei. Social media mocked his photo with UNO cards due to a mistaken interpretation of the game rules.

White House shows Trump's "cards" in the war with Iran

The White House stated that US President Donald Trump "holds all the cards" in the standoff with Iran. This was reported by UNN with reference to a post on the social network X. 

"The math is simple. President Trump holds all the cards," the post reads. 

The post includes a photo from Trump's account, in which the American president indicates that all of Iran's ships, aircraft, and air defenses have been destroyed, and also pointed to the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. 

In contrast, Trump added that US ships, aircraft, and air defenses are 100% operational. 

Addendum

On Sunday, May 3, Donald Trump posted an image on his social network Truth Social showing him holding six "Wild" cards from the board game UNO with the caption: "I have all the cards." 

However, social media users were quick to point out the mistake. Specifically, according to the rules of UNO, the winner is the player who is the first to get rid of all their cards. Having a large number of cards in hand, on the contrary, indicates a losing position.

"If you have all the cards and you're playing UNO, you're losing, you damn idiot. The goal of UNO is to have zero cards, you fucking idiot," users wrote. 

As a reminder 

US President Donald Trump stated on Monday that the United States sank "seven small" Iranian boats after Tehran fired upon several vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
