Trump said he expected higher oil prices due to the operation against Iran.
“We were doing great. And then I saw what was happening in Iran and said, 'I really don't want to start this operation, but we're going to have to.' And I really thought the numbers would be worse. I thought they'd be higher than they actually were. But we're doing this operation, and when it's over, we'll have a much safer world,” he said.
