Trump to Fox News: If they don't make a deal and fast, I'm considering blowing everything up and taking over the oil

MeidasTouch on Bluesky, posting about what Trump told a Fox reporter AFTER his crazy Truth Social post.

That reporter's tweet on X in a reply below.

Trump just told Fox reporter Trey Yingst heâ€™s â€œconsidering blowing everything up and taking over the oilâ€ if Iran doesnâ€™t make a deal â€œfastâ€â€”while claiming he expects to be able to get a deal with Iran as soon asâ€¦tomorrow. Here we go againâ€¦

Will Polymarket place bets on whether the terrorist attacks happen during the construction process or after everything is built?

Occupying Iran will be a full time effort for our military for as long as we are there. I don't believe it will ever get easy. And Iran's leaders are crazier than Trump (can you imagine?), so who knows what they will do.
