  • Trump claimed Iranian Navy and Air Force capabilities have been decimated, arguing the United States must "win it quickly, but win it" while floating the potential of disabling the nation's electric grid.
  • Commenting on a post-war Iran, Trump stated the United States does not want the Islamic regime to regrow, expressing preference for new leadership that "knows what they're doing" to rebuild the country.
  • Trump previously told reporters at Joint Base Andrews that many observers believe the war has already been won, despite his criticism of coverage by the Failing New York Times.
