In a social media post overnight, Trump said there was a “virtually unlimited supply” of U.S. munitions ​and that “wars can be fought “forever,” and very successfully, using ​just these supplies.”

“The United States is stocked, and ready ⁠to WIN, BIG!!!” he wrote.

His comments late on Monday ​come as the conflict enters its fourth day following U.S. and ​Israeli air strikes on Iran on Saturday.

Trump, who began his second term last year, campaigned in part on not starting any wars and instead ​focusing on the economy and has long derided the ​United States’ wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Some top MAGA influencers have spoken out ‌against ⁠the latest Iran strikes, even as Republicans have been generally supportive despite potential political risks ahead of November’s midterm elections.

Trump earlier on Monday offered no details on how long the campaign against ​Tehran would last, ​but said ⁠it had been projected to last four to five weeks.

“We’re already substantially ahead of our time ​projections. But whatever the time is, it’s ​OK. Whatever ⁠it takes,” he said in his first public event since the conflict began, speaking briefly about the war ahead of a ⁠Medal ​of Honour ceremony at the White ​House.

Trump has not given a televised address to the nation, as is customary ​at times of military action.
