Trump Downplays Iran Conflict as U.S.-Israel Strikes Drag On

TL;DR Summary
President Trump downplays the ongoing US-Israel campaign against Iran, calling it a 'military conflict' and 'small potatoes' while noting intermittent strikes, claiming control of the Hormuz Strait, and citing 18 American deaths as fuel prices rise; VP Vance’s remarks that there is 'no active shooting' shape the tone, even as Congress weighs war powers and sanctions tighten ahead of the November midterms.
