Trump’s Secret Promise: No War with Iran—Despite Public Threats

Washington D.C., Monday, 22 June 2026.
A forthcoming book reveals Donald Trump privately assured Elon Musk and Tucker Carlson in early 2025 that he had no intention of waging war with Iran, calling Benjamin Netanyahu a ‘con man.’ This stark contrast between private assurances and public rhetoric raises critical questions about U.S. foreign policy under a potential second Trump term. The revelation, emerging amid fragile U.S.-Iran negotiations, could reshape global energy markets and defense strategies. Most intriguingly, Trump’s private stance contradicts his aggressive public threats—leaving investors and allies scrambling to decode his true intentions.
