Did Trump say Iran war is over?

Analysis Reasoning

Trump stated the Iran war is "very close to being over" in a Fox Business interview, not that it is definitively over. He explicitly said the U.S. is "not finished" and operations could resume depending on negotiations and Iran's actions. No sources confirm him declaring the war fully over or ruling out future military operations. The post exaggerates Trump's words by changing "very close to being over" into a conclusive "the war is over" and fabricates "no plans to resume," which contradicts his own qualifiers about not being done and waiting on Iran. A kernel of truth exists in his optimistic phrasing amid ceasefire talks, but the definitive claim misrepresents the conditional context from primary reporting. Multiple outlets quote the same interview consistently, confirming the distortion.
