On March 26, U.S. President Trump recently expressed to his aides that he hopes to avoid a prolonged war in Iran and wishes to end the conflict in the coming weeks. The issue is that Trump does not have a straightforward way to end the war, and peace negotiations are still in the early stages. During discussions with external political allies, his attention sometimes shifts to other topics, including the upcoming midterm elections and his decision to send immigration officials to airports and push Congress to pass legislation tightening voter eligibility requirements. An informed source revealed that Trump told a colleague that the war was distracting him from focusing on other priorities. Another person who recently spoke with Trump indicated that the president seems ready to shift his focus to the next major challenge, but he did not disclose what that is. Some allies hope he will turn his attention to the Cuba issue, while his close advisors want him to focus on the issues most concerning voters: the cost of living, which has been exacerbated by the war. White House Press Secretary Levitt stated, 'President Trump is very good at multitasking and can handle multiple challenges at once. The president is fully committed to achieving military objectives against Iran. The president's sole goal has always been victory.' (The Wall Street Journal)
