White House Shuts Down Nuke Talk After Incendiary Trump Threat Sparks Uproar
"Speaking to an audience during his visit to Hungary, Vance said the U.S. had largely accomplished its military objectives in Iran but signaled further escalation remained possible if the Iranian regime didn't change their course of conduct."
"The president of the United States can decide to use them, and he will decide to use them if the Iranians don't change their course of conduct, he said."
"The White House swiftly rejected that interpretation in an unusually blunt response on X: Literally nothing @VP said here implies' this, you absolute buffoons."
The White House rejected interpretations suggesting President Trump might consider a nuclear strike on Iran after Vice President JD Vance's comments in Hungary. Vance indicated that while military objectives in Iran were largely met, further escalation could occur if the Iranian regime does not change its conduct. He emphasized that the U.S. has military options that have not yet been utilized. The remarks led to social media speculation about nuclear threats, which the White House dismissed as unfounded.
