USA-Iran Tensions: Is Donald Trump Ready to Use Nuclear Weapons? The White House's Response

On April 7, 2026, the White House firmly rejected any notion of using nuclear weapons against Iran in response to statements made by Vice President JD Vance. In a virulent message on social media platform X, the executive criticized a post from the account @HQNewsNow, linked to Kamala Harris, which suggested that Trump might use nuclear weapons. Trump's remarks about the potential extinction of a 'whole civilization' have heightened political tensions in the U.S. and on the international stage.
