Trump's statement on Iran after the midterm elections: I am completely confident in my decision

Trump, who went live with a call from Politico's Dasha Burns, evaluated the results of the Congressional midterm elections so far.

Repeating his comment that they would have won the elections very easily if he had been on the ballot, Trump said, "I said think as if I were on the ballot, but (the voters) did not agree. In most cases, they did not like the candidates."

Trump stated that he was ready to work with Democrats and stated that "he had the right to veto everything, but he did not want to do this for 2 years."

While evaluating the impact of the election results on policy towards Iran, Trump pointed out that many people criticized the rise in oil prices because of Iran. "I am absolutely confident that the decision I made regarding Iran was and continues to be absolutely correct for the long-term benefit of our country and indeed the world," Trump said.

Asked whether tensions would rise in Iran, Trump said they would evaluate it and do so if they see "an opportunity."

Regarding the allegations of using nuclear power against Iran, Trump said, "I don't need it. We have already destroyed them."
