Speaking further Trump said “we pretty much already know” but that Washington still wanted more proof. “We want to find definitively who did this.”
“With all that being said, we’d certainly like to avoid” war, he said. “I don’t want war with anybody but we’re prepared more than anybody.”
Meanwhile, several people have described Trump as being torn between two political and character traits that are starting to define his foreign policy.
