Trump says war in Iran is going ‘swimmingly’ and ‘should be ending pretty soon’

“It should be ending pretty soon,” Trump said at an event in Las Vegas, echoing similarly rosy predictions about the end of the war that he has made since the United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran in late February.

“It was perfect. It’s perfect. It was the power we have,” the president said. “We had the most powerful military anywhere in the world.”

Hours earlier, Trump said that Israel and Lebanon had agreed to a 10-day ceasefire.
