President Trump grew frustrated with reporters on Thursday when asked how much longer the war in Iran will continue.
“Don’t rush me,” he said in the Oval Office, highlighting the length of previous American wars. “I’ve been doing this for six weeks.
And their military is totally defeated.”
The president said he was extending the ceasefire as he awaits a unified response from the remaining Iranian leaders, who he said were “fighting like cats and dogs” for control of the country.
“They want to make a deal.
We have been speaking to them, but they don’t even know who’s leading the country,” he said. “They’re in turmoil, so we thought we’d give them a little chance to get some of their turmoil resolved.”
President Trump said the U.S. has “total control” of the Strait of Hormuz, which he said is hurting Iran economically.
