US officials discuss Iran war could continue until the end of Trump's term, contradicting Trump's public statements

US officials have stated that senior White House advisers have privately raised with Trump the possibility that the Iran war could continue until the end of his term. Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Rubio, and Trump discussed the situation where Iran continues to resist under military pressure, leading to the conflict continuing beyond the presidential inauguration day in January 2029. Trump told reporters on Wednesday that the war will end immediately after the November midterm elections. (Source: The Wall Street Journal)
