About Donald Trump
President Trump said in a June 2026 interview with NBC's "Meet the Press" that the U.S. military operation against Iran is "not an endless war," describing it as a "military exercise" and stating that Iran's military capabilities have been "largely decapitated." He said the U.S. has a naval blockade that is costing Iran "4 to 500 million dollars a day" and that he is "very close" to reaching a nuclear deal, though he added that if no deal is reached, he would "blow the hell out of them." Trump also said he did not break his campaign promise of no new wars, arguing he had to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. During the same interview, Trump said the "weaponization fund" is "a great idea" and that he would pay applicants "the kind of money they deserve," while also repeating unsubstantiated claims that elections are "rigged" and calling the press "crooked." He ended the interview abruptly after clashing with host Kristen Welker over election fraud allegations. On economic matters, Trump praised the June jobs report as "fantastic" and said he wants Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh to "do whatever he wants" on interest rates, while also stating that "there's no reason to raise interest rates" and that growth "does not cause inflation." During a roundtable with Wisconsin farmers, Trump highlighted the elimination of the estate tax, the end of electric vehicle mandates, and the right-to-repair for farm equipment. He also announced a $700 million investment to protect coal plants and mines, invoking the Defense Production Act. On foreign policy, Trump said the Russia-Ukraine war "should have never happened" and that he is "getting close" to seeing it resolved, while noting that Ukraine is now buying U.S. weapons "at full price."
