Axios reporter: Trump says he is '50-50' on Iran deal

Trump told an Axios reporter on Saturday that he is a "solid 50-50" in his decision to make a deal with Iran or resume the war. 

“Either we reach a good deal or I’ll blow them to a thousand hells,” Trump said in a phone call, according to Axios reporter Barak Ravid on X. 

The US president said that he would meet with senior advisors to discuss the updated draft of the deal and make a decision by Sunday.
