This does not appear to be real. He did have a similar truth social post:

Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP

    We really can't differentiate between satire and misinformation anymore, can we?

    Its not really satire if its almost exactly what he said but slightly worse, theres not really a joke or commentary and it does succeed at being misleading, I feel like its fair to describe it as misinformation. Its just an exaggeration of how bad what he said is.

    There are people in this tread litterally claiming its true because there are sources that substantiate him saying something very similar.

    *Edited for clarity that I feel its fair to call this misinformation

    As in, you can go read Trump's actual post yourself.

    I don't like this shitpost. It is too close to reality, so it effectively becomes misinformation, doesn't add anything to the world.
