US President Donald Trump says the United States has options in the conflict with Iran, including allowing Iran’s economy to fail or taking a more forceful approach. In an interview released late Monday with Real America’s Voice, Trump also describes Iran as “devious negotiators.”
Trump frames his comments around negotiating and strategic choices, characterizing one approach as “just bop along” while Iran faces economic pressure. He also points to another option as “hit them really, really hard.” The reporting also attributes the remarks to an interview conducted by phone, without detailing specific military or diplomatic actions in connection with the statements.
