"Trump declared from his Doral, Florida, golf resort that the war he launched with Israel last week is "very complete," while holding a press conference dedicated to stabilizing global financial markets that tanked for much of Monday amid spiking oil prices, hosting top Republican donors and congressional members."
"Trump declared earlier in the day to CBS News, wrapping up the Iran war "is all in my mind, nobody else's"-and the same glorified mind-cure formula holds for his declarations on the war's calamitous economic fallout, as the president continually hails economic golden age while cost of living spirals and new hiring flatlines."
"Trump began with a litany of the war's achievements-the disabling of Iran's navy and air force, the immobilization of 90 percent of its missile program, and ongoing US and Israeli bombing raids-then declared that the political objective was to install a new leader who would ensure peaceful compliance through military bombardment."
President Trump held a press conference at his Doral golf resort declaring the Iran war "very complete" while attempting to stabilize global financial markets that declined due to rising oil prices. The event included meetings with Republican donors and congressional members, featuring a lengthy standing ovation. Trump claimed economic conditions would improve following the Iran conflict, despite the country facing inflation and weak job growth. He asserted that managing the war's conclusion and economic consequences depended solely on his decision-making. Trump's statements mirrored patterns from his State of the Union address, combining war achievements with promises of peaceful outcomes, contradicting the military campaign's destructive impact.
