President Donald Trump suggested the memorandum of understanding reached with Iran amounts to “unconditional surrender” and that the conflict demonstrated the breadth of his presidential powers.
“We have the most powerful military in the world, by far,” Trump told Axios’ Marc Caputo in an interview clip released Thursday.
Caputo then told the president that “at the beginning of the conflict, you had talked about you only wanted unconditional surrender and the MOU doesn’t look like unconditional surrender.”
“Well, it really probably is unconditional surrender,” Trump replied.
“It is?” Caputo pressed, before Trump responded: “I think so.”
The comments come after the United States and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding that begins a 60-day negotiating period toward a final agreement aimed at ending the war.
CNN reported that as key Republicans on Capitol Hill first learned the details of Trump’s agreement with Iran, some were so stunned that they wouldn’t speak about it. But now, a significant bloc of GOP senators has begun to openly doubt the terms of Trump’s Iran negotiations — with many urging him to pivot his strategy entirely.
Some, mostly those unburdened by reelection campaigns, are full-on hammering Trump’s agreement, with outgoing Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy summing it up as: “Iran’s left stronger, we are left weaker.”
In the Axios interview, set to release on Friday, Trump was asked what he had learned about the exercise of power and the limits on his power as a result of the conflict. “There are no limits,” he said.
“No, none. I haven’t learned that lesson yet. I know there are, but you know there are no limits. We defeated them totally militarily,” Trump insisted.
