President Trump during his historic speech at the RNC midterm convention revealed when the Iran War will come to an end.

Trump was the last speaker of the night at the convention and talked on dozens of topics such as the SAVE Act, the economy, the upcoming midterms, and highlights of his administration’s success.

Towards the end of his speech, Trump discussed the Iran War and revealed the timeline when the war will come to an end.

BBC provided quotes from Trump’s remarks on Iran:

US President Donald Trump has said he does not think the Iran war will end until after November’s midterm elections, adding that oil prices will not come down until then.

“I think the war’s going to end immediately after the election because they can’t hold out any longer,” Trump said of Tehran on Wednesday.

He made the comments as he headed to Texas for the party’s first-ever midterm election convention, when the balance of power could change in the US government.
Trump is facing falling polling numbers and pressure from within his Republican Party to end the war with Iran. On Wednesday, oil prices rose to $100 (£74) for the first time since July due to increased fighting in the Middle East.
“Right after the election, oil prices are going to be tumbling downward,” Trump told reporters. “I think it’s going to take a little bit longer than the midterm.”

He added that Iran was “desperate to try and affect the election, so that we can get a nice weak group of people in there” – an apparent reference to the Democrats – “and leave them alone and let them have their nuclear weapon”.

The Hill reported earlier in the day, Trump made similar remarks while addressing members of the press on the tarmac:

President Trump said Wednesday he believes the U.S. war with Iran will end “immediately” after November’s midterm elections.

“I think the war is going to end immediately after the election,” Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews en route to the Republican midterm convention in Dallas.

Trump made the prediction when asked at Joint Base Andrews whether he expects negotiations with Iran to resume.

“We’re not looking for it, to be honest,” Trump responded. “Originally, I wanted to make a deal. We’re so far down the line. We have very little country left.”

“Yes, a negotiation could possibly happen, but it’s not something we’re looking at,” he added.

The president’s comments come after Iran said Wednesday that it targeted 10 ships near the Strait of Hormuz, including two U.S. vessels and eight oil tankers. Those strikes followed the U.S. destroying five Iranian oil tankers Tuesday.

“We’ve knocked out nine of their ships. I would say that the attacks are caused by us, and you’re going to see a lot more,” Trump told reporters Wednesday.
