Trump: US will win Iran war 'fairly quickly'

President Donald Trump told reporters that US officials held talks with mediators seeking to end the war with Iran, reiterating that America will win "very soon." He stated, "We will win, one way or another. It will happen fairly quickly," and repeated that fuel prices will plummet after victory. Trump also addressed economic issues ahead of midterm elections, saying a trade deal with Canada will be reached because Canadians "keep calling." He announced an $18 billion steel plant in Iowa by Mesabi Metallics, claiming it will be the largest in US history, creating 6,000 construction jobs and 2,000 permanent positions. Trump denied reports from US Ambassador to Beijing David Perdue that he proposed China buy American weapons during President Xi Jinping's recent Washington visit. He said he "never heard anything like that," though he suggested China might want to buy US arms since "we build better than they do."
