President Donald Trump is predicting the Iran conflict could come to an end after the midterms.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, the president revealed that he believes the war will come to an end quickly following the midterm elections, resulting in lower gas prices. Speaking to reporters in Ireland, he accused the country of doing its best to withstand American attacks as a way of complicating the election.<\/p>\n

Reporter: When will the war in Iran end?<\/p>\n

Trump: I think very soon, probably right after midterms.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think very soon, I think it will be, probably, right after the midterms,\u201d he said. \u201cThey are trying to hold out as long as they can to complicate the election, but I think people are wise to it because Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. It\u2019s very simple.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThey were two weeks away from having a nuclear weapon. If they had it, they would have blown up Israel, they would have blown up the Middle East, and they would have hit some of Europe\u2019s, in my opinion, Europe\u2019s cities and beyond cities,\u201d he added. \u201cAnd they would have probably hit us too before we put out the fire. But they cannot have a nuclear weapon.\u201d<\/p>\n

He made the same suggestion while speaking to Fox News\u2019s Laura Ingraham:<\/p>\n

\n

Trump: The Iran war will end after the midterms.<\/p>\n

Q: If Republicans lose, why would the war end?<\/p>\n

Trump: A lot of people think if we lose, I\u2019ll just be more angry and I\u2019ll just take care of business, you know? Either way, they lose.pic.twitter.com\/7INPiH1YQs<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cBy the way, the war will end right after the midterms,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Republicans win. But if Republicans lose in the midterms, why would the Iran war end?\u201d Ingraham asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, I think a lot of people think if we lose, I\u2019ll just be more angry and I\u2019ll just take care of business, you know? That\u2019s another way of doing it, but either way, they lose,\u201d Trump responded.<\/p>\n

Trump just admitted the war timeline depends on whether voters hurt his feelings. Imagine telling military families the timeline might change depending on whether Trump likes the election results. https:\/\/t.co\/dTGUqu2eNj<\/a><\/p>\n

Hasn\u2019t Trump claimed we\u2019ve \u201cwon\u201d the war with Iran multiple times?<\/p>\n

Now, he suggests it will conveniently end right after the midterms.<\/p>\n

So his new timeline boils down to\u2026 politics. What a jackass. \"\ud83e\udd26\ud83c\udffc\u200d\u2640\ufe0f\" https:\/\/t.co\/WHr9SGN1lC<\/a><\/p>\n

The war was supposed to end in one day, sorry, in one week, sorry, in two weeks, sorry, in a couple of months, sorry, very soon, sorry, before the midterms, sorry, after the midterms, sorry, Iran lost already. Very soon. In a couple of weeks. https:\/\/t.co\/sVeEnGeaWv<\/a><\/p>\n
