Newsweek is reporting that President Donald Trump is preparing to launch an "ECONOMIC D-DAY" against Iran. It said Trump aims to compel the Islamic Republic to relinquish control over the Strait of Hormuz and agree to a new deal. In a recent Truth Social post, the president promised "THE MOST CRUSHING ECONOMIC OPERATION EVER" and issued a warning that any nation found assisting Tehran would also face White House scrutiny. Newsweek noted this announcement came as America's national debt surpassed $40 trillion. With the economy being a primary concern for voters less than three months before the midterm elections, Republicans are facing increasing questions about the extent of economic pressure Trump can apply internationally before domestic voters react to economic conditions at home.
