Latest trump comments: war costs a lot of money and lifes, i dont want war

While speaking with Hilton, he recounted the costs of war which he said he wanted to avoid.

"With all of everything that’s going on, and I’m not one that believes -- you know, I’m not somebody that wants to go into war, because war hurts economies, war kills people most importantly -- by far most importantly," he said.

Trump has urged Iranians to come to the table even as they appeared to continue retaliating over higher sanctions -- a devastating form of pressure that started with Trump's decision to exit the Obama-era nuclear deal.

TRUMP SAYS WAR WILL MEAN 'OFFICIAL END OF IRAN', WARNS 'NEVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN'

"I ended the Iran Nuclear Deal, and actually, I must tell you -- I had no idea it was going to be as strong as it was. It totally -- the country is devastated from the standpoint of the economy," he told Hilton.

While the president stood by that decision, he faced renewed criticism from Democrats over that 2018 exit. Many of the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates have pledged to re-enter the deal.

One of those was Mayor Pete Buttigieg who, on Thursday, reportedly leveled some harsh criticism of the president's Iran strategy. Trump caught headlines for appearing to toy with Buttigieg's name -- pronouncing it as "boot edge edge."

He did the same during his interview with Hilton but seemed to support Buttigieg's relationship with his same-sex partner and defend his relatively ambitious plan to run for president from a mayoral seat.

"You know, it’s sort of interesting because he’s running for the president of the United States as a mayor. But you could say that I ran for president of the United States, and I was never in politics before, right? But I had a good life, and I had a successful life," he said.

Trump wasn't so diplomatic towards frontrunner and former Vice President Joe Biden. Biden, whose administration crafted the deal, derided Trump in 2018 for erasing "years" of progress with Iran. He will likely make Iran an even bigger issue as the 2020 elections neared.

Trump is good in showmanship. He just wants to feel, he looks good.

He is in fact a man simple minded man to deal with. He needs other to praise him and make him feel good.

Economic sanctions are part of a war; they aren't just bombs but actually starve people. Also, before war happens, sanctions debilitate the sanctioned country, especially if the rest of the world adheres to those sanctions. Iraq is a clear example that can be cited, where 1.5 million Iraqi children died due to malnutrition and lack of medicine as a result of the devastating sanctions that were imposed on that country in 1991.

Sanctions also make countries defenseless, especially when that country is not allowed to import or develop defensive weapons. Both Libya and Iraq were heavily sanctioned and then eventually invaded after over 2 decades of arms embargo.

So it is not clear if Trump is genuine when he says he doesn't war. His claim that he wants to negotiate with Iran seems to be he wants them to give up their ballistic missiles, nuclear development, and also support to groups that Iran supports in the region. This approach is really no different than the same demands that were executed on both Iraq and Libya, where they gave up their nuclear and other weapons. They were then invaded, their leaders killed, and millions of people died in the process, other millions were wounded and orphaned, and the tragedy of those invasions are still prevalent in both countries. It looks like it is deja vu all over again, this time the victim being Iran.

They want us to give up missiles.. nuclear program, and then they suddenly attack. No we learned from Libya and Iraq to do the opposite.

Anyone who knows a thing or two about human physiology and body language can see from Trump's lips a real anger and from his eyes, defiance.. A man who is going to fight at the slightest physical provocation..
