On October 1, Trump said the war in Iran would end very soon, either through a US strike or through a deal.

On October 6, Trump said he was ready to sacrifice Los Angeles or San Diego in a war with Iran, saying Iran could “destroy the city,” without providing evidence that the country has weapons of mass destruction or long-range weapons capable of such a strike.
