In response to the speculation, many social media users suggested the president might speak about the escalating Iran-Israel conflict. Some even speculated that the United States could be preparing to intervene on Israel’s behalf, potentially entering into direct conflict with Iran.

One person wrote on X, “I don’t want a war and to see American lives lost, but I am trusting Trump on what’s best for America and our safety.”

Another wrote, “Trump to address the world. If he declares the U.S. is going to war with Iran, this will be one of those major moments in world history that will be remembered 20 years from now. The long term consequences are monumental.”
