The reason for Trump's insistence on the danger of Iran's nuclear bomb Donald Trump knows very well that Iran still had no desire to build a nuclear bomb, and at least it did not seek to build such a weapon until its blind attack. But now he needs such a false narrative more than anything. One of the topics that Trump rarely addresses in his election speeches is the gap between America's stated goals and current conditions. At the beginning of the war, Washington expected that the military attack would be completed within a short period of time, about four to six weeks, and that the United States would be able to achieve its desired goals. But the passage of months since the beginning of the conflict did not lead to the end of the crisis, but brought new issues before the American government. The economic consequences of the war have become another problem for the Trump administration. The increase in the cost of living and especially in the price of fuel has become a concern of a large part of American society in a situation where the Republicans need the votes of these people to maintain their majority in Congress.
