Trump says Iran war to last four to five weeks but could go ‘far longer’ | Donald Trump
President Trump outlined four goals in the Iran conflict: destroying Iran’s missile capabilities, annihilating its navy, preventing it from obtaining nuclear weapons, and stopping its support for militant groups. He stated the campaign, initially projected to last 4-5 weeks, could go “far longer.” During a Medal of Honor ceremony, Trump defended the strike that killed Ayatollah Khamenei, citing threats from Iran’s nuclear and missile programs. He also boasted about building a new, “beautiful” White House ballroom “under budget” for “$400m or less,” a comment criticized as politically tone-deaf during a discussion of war.
