VIDEO | "We have to do something large ... the only thing I can tell you with certainty, they will never have a nuclear weapon." US President Donald Trump suggested earlier today that Washington may execute a massive military assault against Iran, asserting that the US has not completed its military objectives despite suffering historic losses in the midterm elections. Speaking during a interview on Fox News hours after Democrats captured majorities in both houses of Congress, Trump signaled a potential escalation in US military operations across the region. "If we have to do something large... a lot of people would like to do the heavy hit," Trump stated, confirming that military planners are preparing options for a high-intensity strike campaign. Emphasizing that he has not ruled out further direct aggression against Tehran, Trump added, "We have not yet finished the mission in Iran." The belligerent rhetoric comes despite public acknowledgement from Trump that widespread domestic dissatisfaction with rising fuel costs and the expanding regional war played a decisive role in punishing Republican candidates at the polls.
