Trump threatens to 'blow up Oman'.

President Donald Trump declared on Wednesday that he would "blow up Oman" if it pursued a toll collection agreement in Hormuz with Iran.

No rush to sign an agreement with Iran, as they are not concerned about the midterm elections.

President Donald Trump pledged on May 27 to reach a favorable agreement to end the war with Iran, while warning that Tehran's delaying tactics aimed at waiting for his term to end would fail because he "doesn't care about the midterm elections."

"They thought they'd wait until my term was over. They thought we'd wait for him, that he was still in the midterm elections," Trump said at a cabinet meeting at the White House, dismissing concerns about domestic political damage caused by the war.

He cited the fact that his candidate had just won the Republican Senate primary in Texas as a "prelude" to proving that voters still support his policies.

The US president expressed confidence that Washington would soon reach an agreement to end the conflict, reopening the Strait of Hormuz and providing a victory argument for curbing Iran's nuclear capabilities. However, he noted that he was not satisfied with the current terms and was prepared to resume fighting if his demands were not met.

"We're not satisfied yet, but we will be. Either that, or we'll have to finish the job," Trump asserted. He also suggested that Iran's restoration of internet access and its collapsing economy were signs that Tehran's position was weakening and that they had no choice but to sign the agreement.

Immediately after the cabinet meeting, in a telephone interview with PBS News before entering a closed-door discussion with senior advisers, Trump continued to take a tough stance on the core issue.

When asked whether the current agreement framework meant Iran would give up highly enriched uranium in exchange for the lifting of sanctions, he asserted: "No, absolutely not. There will be no lifting of sanctions. They will have to give up that highly enriched uranium, but not in exchange for the lifting of sanctions."

Despite Trump's tough stance and claims of not being pressured by the midterm elections, observers believe the Republican president still faces significant political risks.

The developing draft agreement risks pushing many core issues to later stages, drawing criticism from within his own conservative camp who fear Iran will emerge from the conflict in a more defiant position.

All these issues are reaching a decisive point amidst Republican concerns that rising living costs and fuel prices due to the war will directly impact the sentiment of American voters as the election day to gain control of Congress approaches.
