Trump Says Ramped Up Bombing of Iran ‘Possible’
Trump said he may intensify strikes after the midterm elections and rejected Tehran’s latest proposal, which he said did not meet U.S. terms.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump stated it was "possible" the seven-month conflict could hinder Republican midterm prospects, though he argued the war "should help" by preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
- Businesses have spent $48 billion extra on fuel this year due to the Iran War, while household costs are on pace to top $1,300 by year's end as Iran blocks the Strait of Hormuz.
- The Pentagon is concentrating three aircraft carrier strike groups in the Middle East, potentially adding 10,000 troops to the region to pressure Iran or prepare for further strikes against its nuclear program.
- Lara Trump, the president's daughter-in-law, admitted the war "could cost" Republicans the midterm elections, though she maintained preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons justifies the political risk.
- President Trump withheld details on forthcoming actions, forecasting the war would end "very soon" and predicting oil prices would drop sharply once fighting stops.
