Former President Donald Trump made headlines again for a verbal gaffe, confusing Iran with India during remarks to reporters. The former president asserted that his administration’s use of tariffs was instrumental in averting a nuclear war between Pakistan and Iran. He recounted a specific instance where he threatened a massive 200% tariff on both countries if they engaged in conflict. According to Trump, this threat effectively de-escalated the situation within 24 hours, preventing a catastrophic war. He maintained that tariffs are a vital national security tool, essential for safeguarding U.S. interests. Trump also repeated his claim of halting eight wars early in his presidency, lamenting the lack of recognition he received for these actions, though he expressed satisfaction in saving countless lives.
