The president has redirected J.D. Vance toward domestic issues after the vice president blamed the conflict for Republicans’ midterm defeat
Washington no longer needs a deal with Iran, US President Donald Trump has declared. He has directed Vice President J.D. Vance to focus instead on alleged corruption and crime in Democrat-run states and cities.
The announcement follows Vance’s criticism of the US-Israeli war on Iran, which he blamed for Republicans’ defeat in last week’s midterm elections. On Wednesday, the vice president questioned whether the conflict had been worth its cost. Vance had previously pursued diplomatic efforts to end the war and reportedly favored reaching an agreement with Tehran over continued military pressure.
In a Truth Social post on Thursday, Trump ordered Vance to devote his “complete and total attention” to tackling the domestic issue, arguing that a sweeping corruption crackdown could help balance the federal budget.
“We don’t need a deal with Iran. Those days have long since passed,” Trump wrote. “We’ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we’ve got their Strait!”
