President Donald Trump directed Vice President JD Vance to focus on fighting fraud in Democrat-run states instead of ending the Iran War.
“I have asked Vice President Vance to focus his complete and total attention on the Massive Corruption and Crime taking place in Democrat run Cities and States throughout the U.S.,” Trump said Thursday in a Truth Social post.
He went on to say, “We don’t need a deal with Iran. Those days have long since passed. We’ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we’ve got their Strait!”
This comes after the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that Vance was emerging as lead negotiator with Iran and that Trump was open to him restarting talks.
On Thursday, Trump argued that blue states like Minnesota, California, and Illinois are “all poorly run, corrupt disasters.”
“Billions of Dollars is being stolen each and every month,” he said. “Our Budget could be quickly BALANCED with the correction of this large scale criminal activity. CORRUPTION is in the Democrat Leadership’s blood!”

“I did the right thing. I would have done it again,” he told the Journal on election night.
