President Donald Trump warned journalists they could be in danger while discussing potential U.S. military action against Iran’s nuclear program. He mentioned Iran’s escalating conflict with Israel, which has been targeting nuclear and military sites, and reiterated that Iran has a short time to negotiate peace. Trump hinted at threats from Iran’s proxies and emphasized the need for strong military responses. He also criticized NATO countries like Spain and Canada for underpaying their defense share, while asserting the U.S. had long carried most of the financial burden.

Trump deflected questions about internal conflicts within the U.S. political scene, cautioning officials to be mindful of their rhetoric, particularly concerning Ukraine. Meanwhile, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo highlighted Iran’s global terror operations. Despite rising tensions, Trump maintains strong approval ratings, particularly on issues like the economy and immigration. When asked about Iran’s refusal to halt its nuclear ambitions, Trump simply responded, “Good luck,” underscoring his confrontational posture.
