Trump Threatens to Annihilate Iran Again and Other Takeaways From His TIME Interview

Trump repeated a threat to annihilate Iran and drew scrutiny over a reported $400 million war chest and a clandestine Musk meeting.

  • On Thursday, President Donald Trump told TIME Magazine that peace with Iran is impossible, while claiming his military campaign has "created peace in the world."
  • Seven months into the war, a recent CNN poll shows 78% of Americans believe the president lacks a clear plan to end the conflict, creating skepticism one month before critical elections.
  • Trump has extensively renovated The White House, reconfiguring The Rose Garden and installing a "Presidential Walk of Fame," while declining to rule out demolishing the Kennedy Center, described as "terrible shape."
  • The president expressed frustration with Supreme Court justices he appointed, citing rulings against his tariffs and citizenship policies, and warned Democrats would "probably go after me" if Republicans lose the House.
  • These comments arrive as Republicans approach a significant test regarding Americans' faith in their leadership, with the political landscape markedly different since Trump's April 2025 TIME interview.
