President Donald Trump publicly thanked former Florida Governor Jeb Bush on Tuesday for supporting the U.S. military strike on Iran’s nuclear program, calling the praise “very much appreciated” in a Truth Social post, as reported by Fox News.
Bush, who now serves as chairman of United Against Nuclear Iran, released a statement alongside other members of the group applauding the decision as a historic moment.
The coordinated statement referred to the strike as “one of the most important of the 21st century,” and an act of “courage, clarity, and historical necessity.”

“President Trump’s decision to neutralize Iran’s regime’s nuclear program is a watershed moment—one that reasserts American strength, restores deterrence, and sends an unmistakable message to rogue regimes: the era of impunity is over. Where others delayed and wavered, President Trump acted,” the statement read.

The former Florida governor is the son of the late President George H.W. Bush and the brother of former President George W. Bush. Jeb Bush previously ran for president during the 2016 Republican primaries but ended his campaign early after underperforming in several key states.
Bush’s praise represents a rare moment of alignment with Trump following years of political tension between the two, particularly during the 2016 election cycle when Trump frequently targeted Bush on the campaign trail.
The bipartisan organization United Against Nuclear Iran is comprised of former diplomats, national security officials, and policy advocates focused on preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons and curbing the regime’s influence in the region.
Other prominent Republicans have also voiced support for the strike, including former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley and former Vice President Mike Pence. Both hailed Trump’s decision as necessary and long overdue.
The airstrike, which targeted Iran’s nuclear facilities, was framed by the Trump administration as a direct move to dismantle Tehran’s nuclear ambitions and send a message to other hostile regimes.
The operation drew both domestic and international attention and marked a significant escalation in U.S. action against the Iranian regime.
No official response has yet been released by Iranian leadership regarding Bush’s comments or Trump’s acknowledgment. The administration continues to monitor the situation in the region following the strike.
