Asked by a reporter at the Easter Egg Roll whether tomorrow at 8 p.m. ET was his final deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, Trump said "yeah," NBC News reports.
Trump said that Iran has "made a proposal and it's a significant proposal," adding that this was a "significant step" but "not good enough."
Asked what he would say to Americans who do not like the war with Iran, Trump said, "they're foolish because the war's about one thing: Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon."
Polls indicate that most Americans do not approve of U.S. military action in Iran, but Republicans have been broadly supportive of Trump’s actions.
