President Trump insisted there are “no limits” to his power when asked in a new interview about his takeaways from the Iran war.
The president was pressed by Axios’s Marc Caputo during an interview about whether he learned there are bounds to his power during the Middle East conflict.
“I haven’t learned that lesson yet,” he replied. “I know there are, but there are no limits. We defeated them totally militarily.”
Caputo also asked Trump about his original promise that the war would end with an “unconditional surrender” from Tehran, pointing to the memorandum of understanding he signed on Wednesday.
The 14-point agreement includes provisions to lift sanctions on Iran and supply the nation with a $300 billion reconstruction fund, in exchange for Iran making concessions on its nuclear program and existing stockpile of nuclear material.
