'Help is on the way,' Trump says as he urges Iranians to 'keep protesting'

Donald Trump just briefly came and spoke to reporters outside the White House, before boarding his helicopter and leaving for Detroit.

He said nothing about Iran, other than to direct us to his recent post.

Domestic concerns are clearly his focus today.

He lauded the state of the American economy and new inflation numbers, briefly touched on Fed Chair Jerome Powell - who he said was either "crooked" or "incompetent" - and rattled off a list of cities in which he claims crime has fallen because of his public safety efforts.

After taking just two questions, he walked to the helicopter, followed by Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
