Reporter: You called it an excursion. You said it would be over soon. Are you thinking it will be over this week?

Trump: No, but very soon.

Trump on Cuba:

It may be a friendly takeover. It may not be a friendly takeover.

It wouldn’t matter because they’re really down to fumes, as they say. They have no energy. They have no money.

They’re in deep trouble on a humanitarian basis.

Trump on Cuba:

They will either make a deal, or we will do it just as easy anyway.

Trump on Iran:

The rest is gonna be a determination as to my attitude, along with the people in the Trump administration, what we want to do.

Trump:

I knew oil prices would go up if I did this, and they’ve gone up probably less than I thought they would.

Trump on Iran’s new Supreme Leader:

I was disappointed because we think it’s going to lead to more of the same problem for the country.

So I was disappointed to see their choice.

Trump on the Iranian leadership:

I like the idea of, you know, internal and eternal.

Trump on the Iranian leadership:

They talk about the son of the Shah... But, you know, he hasn't been there in many, many years.

Reporter: You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a Tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war.

Why are you the only person saying this?

Trump: Because I just don’t know enough about it.

Reporter: Are there any points of disagreement between yourself and JD Vance about Iran?

Trump: I don't think so, no... He was philosophically a little bit different than me.

He was maybe less enthusiastic about going, but he was quite enthusiastic.

Trump on Strait of Hormuz:

I want to keep it open. I want to keep it good. It doesn’t pertain to us as much as it does to China.

We’re really helping China here and other countries, because they get a lot of their energy from the straits.

But look, we have a good relationship with China. It’s my honor to do it.

Reporter: Does new Iranian Supreme Leader have a target on his back?

Trump: I don’t want to say whether or not he does, because that would be inappropriate.

Trump on Iran:

We want a system that can lead to many years of peace.

And if we can’t have that, we might as well get it over with right now.

Trump on Iran:

We talked about that with Putin.

He was very impressed with what he saw.

Reporter: You said the war is "very complete." But your Defense Secretary says "this is just the beginning." So which is it?

Trump: You could say both.

Trump is clearly not telling the truth about Minab school strike.

Claim 1: “Tomahawks are used by many countries… very generic.”

Misleading.

— The Tomahawk cruise missile is a U.S.-designed weapon primarily operated by the U.S. Navy.

— Only a small number of close U.S. allies operate or are approved to buy them, such as the UK, Australia, Japan, and potentially the Netherlands.

— They are not widely distributed weapons and require U.S. approval for export.

Claim 2: “Iran also has some Tomahawks.”

No credible evidence.

— There is no public evidence that Iran possesses U.S. Tomahawk missiles.

— Iran operates its own domestically developed cruise missiles, not U.S. TLAM systems.

— Export controls and sanctions make such transfers extremely unlikely.

Reporter: You promised the Iranian people you would help them, but it sounds like you are willing to end this fight after your military objectives have wrapped up. Isn’t that a betrayal?

Trump: I would like to help them if they can behave, but they have been very menacing.... They have to be in a system that allows them to be helped.

Trump:

Your daughter, she has to be of age. Like above 6 years old.
