Calling Vance's assessment "largely true," Trump acknowledged that the Iran conflict drove up gasoline prices but refused to back down, declaring, "If I had to do it again, I'd have to do it again." Despite the MAGA midterm election disaster, Trump insists the Iran war was necessary to stop Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons. Is the Iran war deepening divisions within the GOP?
