President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post that the United States does not need a deal with Iran and asked Vice President JD Vance to focus on alleged corruption and crime in Democratic-run states. Trump named Minnesota, California and Illinois and claimed billions are stolen each month from government programs. Semafor reports that Vance had been leading negotiations and that the post adds uncertainty to a Gulf-supported push to end the war. Left-leaning outlets describe the post as sidelining Vance, and MS NOW reports that Vance blamed the war with Iran for Republican losses in last week’s midterm elections.
