Trump flexes muscles before Iran. "If we wanted to, we could"

Donald Trump expressed confidence regarding the U.S. stance on Iran, stating that the U.S. could take all of Iran's oil and even the country itself if desired. He dismissed claims of a stalemate in the conflict, asserting that Iran is unable to do much. Trump emphasized U.S. control over the Strait of Hormuz and noted the high oil transport levels despite rising costs due to Iranian attacks. He commented on Iran's economic crisis and inflation, questioning whether to 'finish them off' or let them 'wither away.' Additionally, he mentioned ongoing preparations for renewed military strikes against Iran's energy infrastructure and nuclear program after the upcoming U.S. elections.
