The Axios Show there are "no limits" to his power after Iran war
President Trump denied that the Iran war revealed the limits of his ability to exert power, telling "The Axios Show" he still believes there are "no limits."
The big picture: Trump entered the war demanding "unconditional surrender." He ended it with a limited memorandum of understanding instead.
Trump acknowledged to Axios' Marc Caputo that he'd negotiated that deal to keep the war from turning into a global economic depression.
Still, Trump denied he was in any way humbled by that experience. Asked what he'd learned from the war about the limits to his power, he said: "There are no limits."
What he's saying: "I haven't learned that lesson yet. I know there are, but there are no limits," he continued.
