Former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III reacted to the United States military strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities on Saturday night and so did many other people on Twitter. This was huge news across the world when it happened.
When President Donald J. Trump spoke to the media on Friday, it appeared as if he was giving Iran two weeks to potentially negotiate a deal. Well, Trump did not mess around, and the U.S. military decided to strike on Iranian nuclear facilities instead.

Well, a lot of fans totally disagreed with what the former quarterback had to say. This is what some fans had to say about Griffin’s statement on Twitter:
Bro this is the type of overreaction BS that just creates more fear. Be better, and be more informed as to what the heck is actually happening.

BTW we have been in WW3 for some time now you do not understand that, he is trying to stop it.— JBA Meet me in the Middle extremes are Bad (@AdlerJoelle) June 23, 2025
I don’t think so… but If keeping Iran from developing a nuclear weapon starts ww3 then ww3 was going to happen anyway.

Come on @RGIII. I usually agree with your takes, but not this one. There’s too much to lose if Russia and China get involved who are allies or supporters of Iran. They are not throwing their economies in turmoil for Iran or it’s oil.

There are a lot more interesting comments about what Griffin had to say about Trump potentially starting World War III. It will be interesting to see what will happen within the coming weeks after the U.S. decided to attack the Iranian nuclear facilities. Griffin is not the only person who thinks that World War III is on the horizon and a lot of people are disagreeing on this conflict for some odd reason.
