The White House

There's just no way that Donald Trump is going to allow this country to get into a multi-year conflict with no clear end in sight and no clear objective. What is different about President Trump, and it's frankly different about both…

The president's told his entire senior team that we should be trying to cut a deal that ensures the Iranians don't have a nuclear weapon. But if we can't cut that deal, then there's another option on the table. So, I think the president's…

Well, I mean, a couple of principles, right? So, obviously, you know, Israel has the right to defend itself, but America's interest is sometimes going to be distinct, like sometimes we're gonna have overlapping interests, and sometimes…

Iran's new leader must treat the United States and Israel well.

The worst-case scenario for his war with Iran would be we do this and then somebody takes over who's as bad as the previous person.

The process of selecting Iran's leader will work like in Venezuela.

They are decimated for a 10-year period before they could build it back.

We don't want them to put anybody in there unless it is approved by us.

When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take.

Unconditional surrender could be that [the Iranians] announce it. But it could also be when they can't fight any longer because they don't have anyone or anything to fight with.

And that is going to continue because the United States military is the best and most, most lethal fighting force in the world.

It clearly is not making a difference with respect to the military operations in Iran because we are completely decimating them.

That's the way it is -- likely be more, but we'll do everything possible. But that won't be the case. But America will avenge their deaths and deliver the most punishing blow to the terrorists who have waged war against, basically…

We want to have a post office that works well and doesn't lose massive amounts of money. And we're thinking about doing that.

These are completely baseless accusations, backed by zero credible evidence.

They were going to attack if we didn't do it, they were going to attack first ... So, if anything, I might have forced Israel's hand, but Israel was ready and we were ready.

We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action. We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces, and we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them, before they launched those attacks, we would suffer…

An Iranian regime armed with long-range missiles and nuclear weapons would be a dire threat to every American. We cannot allow a nation that raises terrorist armies to possess such weapons, that would allow them to extort the world to…

Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime, a vicious group of very hard, terrible people.

Sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That’s the way it is.

As one nation, we grieve for the true American patriots who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.

It's the sad part of war, it's the bad part of war.

I'm sure I'd hate to do it, but it's a part of war.

We're winning the war by a lot, we've decimated their whole evil empire. It'll continue, I'm sure, for a little while.
