Trump called Americans opposing the war with Iran 'stupid' and stated that the war has only one cause: Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. The U.S. President spoke to reporters at the White House, saying the U.S. is 'destroying' Iran. 'I really don’t want to do this, but we are destroying them, and they just won’t surrender.' 'They don’t want to surrender, but eventually, they will. If they don’t, they’ll have no bridges, no power plants, nothing.' 'I won’t say more because there are worse things than this.' 'Because the oil is right there, within reach, and they can’t do anything about it.' 'Unfortunately, the American people want us to come home. If it were up to me, I’d take the oil, I’d keep the oil, and I’d make a lot of money.' Trump then added that he would 'also take better care of the Iranian people, much better than they’ve been treated in the past.'
