DORAL, Fla. — President Donald Trump on Monday described the Iran war as “short” and “a quick jaunt,” suggesting the 10-day conflict that has roiled the Middle East may be nearing an end.President Trump made the remarks in a speech to House Republicans and donors at his namesake resort outside Miami.
