@nytimes: President Trump said in an address to the nation on Wednesday that the U.S. military campaign against Iran was an overwhelming success and “near completion,” but offered no clear path out of the conflict. In his first prime-time speech since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Iran more than a month ago, Trump oscillated between endorsing negotiations to end the war and promising an escalation of violence. “We are going to hit them extremely hard,” he said. “Over the next two to three weeks, we’re going to bring them back to the Stone Ages, where they belong. In the meantime, discussions are ongoing.” #Trump #Iran #Trumpaddress
