President Donald Trump sparked confusion and outrage after declaring victory over Iran at least five times in 13 seconds during a rally in Hebron, Kentucky.

Trump's remarks came as the US-Israeli airstrike on Iran and subsequent escalation in the Middle East continue, with US bases under attack and embassy staff evacuated from the UAE and Saudi Arabia.

Users on social media were quick to notice the conflicting statements and backtracking, with many calling out Trump's 'Pyrrhic victory' and 'lies'.

Trump also took the opportunity to endorse boxer Jake Paul for a future political office, saying he would 'make a prediction' that Paul would run for office and giving him his 'complete and total endorsement'.
