Donald Trump is desperate to escalate the war with Iran as the world watches to see whether the president will follow through on his unhinged threats against the Middle Eastern country, according to a report.
The 79-year-old has given Tehran a seemingly arbitrary deadline of 8 p.m. on Tuesday to reach a deal on the conflict, including reopening the vital Strait of Hormuz shipping route, before the U.S. begins destroying Iran’s power plants and bridges.
Speaking to Axios, an unnamed source close to the president suggested Trump is the main driver pushing to intensify the fighting in the war in Iran, rejecting suggestions that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth or Secretary of State Marco Rubio is persuading him behind the scenes.
