  • Donald Trump stated the U.S. no longer needs a deal with Iran, citing financial leverage.
  • Trump referenced control over the Strait of Hormuz as a key U.S. advantage.
  • The announcement follows U.S. sanctions and a campaign against the Iranian regime.
  • Trump also instructed Vice President J.D. Vance to combat corruption in Democratic states.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced via his Truth Social platform that the United States no longer requires a deal with Iran, stating, "We don't need a deal with Iran. Those days are long gone. We have their money, hundreds of billions of dollars, and we have their strait." Trump was referring to the Strait of Hormuz, a vital maritime route central to U.S.-Iran tensions.

The declaration comes amid the ongoing U.S. campaign against Iran and the sanctions imposed by Washington. Trump had previously suggested that the Iranian regime was significantly weakened militarily and economically.

In a separate statement, Trump also sharply criticized the Democratic Party, instructing Vice President J.D. Vance to focus on combating corruption and crime in Democratic-led states like California, Minnesota, and Illinois. Trump accused the Democratic leadership of monthly corruption totaling billions of dollars, suggesting its eradication could help balance the U.S. budget.
