Trump says ‘we don’t need a deal with Iran’

Trump says Vance should focus on alleged corruption in Democratic-led cities, claiming the effort could help balance the budget and cost less than an Iran deal.

  • On Thursday, President Donald Trump stated the United States will no longer seek a deal with Iran, asserting, "We don't need a deal. Their money — hundreds of billions of dollars — is with us, and their Strait is also under our control!"
  • Trump directed Vice President JD Vance to focus "his complete and total attention" on crime and corruption in Democratic-run cities, prioritizing this domestic effort over pursuing formal negotiations with Iran.
  • On Wednesday, Vance distanced himself from the Iran conflict following Republicans' midterm election rout by Democrats, questioning whether the war was worth its cost and blaming it for Republican election losses.
  • The administration claims the federal Budget could be quickly BALANCED by correcting large-scale criminal activity within Democrat Leadership, presenting this approach as superior to diplomatic efforts involving the Strait.
  • Seen as a leading 2028 presidential contender, Vance recently described an earlier recommendation to end the Iran war as "sound advice," illustrating internal administration divisions regarding the conflict's strategic value.
