Trump: 'I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation' as a result of Iran war

President Donald Trump admitted that Americans’ financial comfort is not at all on his mind as he walks into meetings with international spokespeople on the continuing Iranian situation.

Trump spoke with reporters during a scrum before departing to a meeting with international reps on improving the mess Trump created when he joined Israel in joint missile strikes against the nation of Iran.

That violence kicked off a retaliatory response from Iran by closing the Strait of Hormuz, and causing a uptick in global and U.S. fuel and grocery prices.

But Trump effortlessly acknowledged that the pain his strikes have caused to U.S. voters was not strong on his mind.

“Mr. President, what extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal [with Iran]” a reporter shouted just before the president walked away.

“Not even a little bit,” Trump immediately answered. “The only thing that matters when I'm talking about Iran, they can't have a nuclear weapon. I don't think about Americans' financial situation. I don't think about anybody. I think about one thing: We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.”

This reaction will not likely garner happy thoughts from Americans suffering price increases at the pump nor Republicans who are facing a voter backlash from ailing voters in November.
