Trump denies Iran war tied to midterms

President Donald Trump has dismissed claims that his handling of the war with Iran is motivated by the upcoming midterm elections. In a statement to Fox News, he said, “People say I want to get it over because of the midterms, not true.” This marks the second time Trump has publicly addressed these allegations, which have circulated amid ongoing conflict and ceasefire negotiations with Iran. The president's comments come as his administration faces scrutiny over its Iran policy timeline and competence.
