In an interview on Monday, US President Trump signaled a strong stance, stating that Operation Epic Fury, the military action against Iran, is far ahead of schedule. Trump emphasized that he would not rule out sending ground troops to prevent Iran, a country led by "madmen," from acquiring nuclear weapons, and stated that he "doesn't care about the polls" and firmly believes that he is doing the right thing.

The military operation progressed rapidly, with 49 high-ranking officers killed on the first day.

Trump told the media that the current military operations are progressing "significantly ahead of expectations." He pointed out that the U.S. military successfully killed 49 high-ranking Iranian military and political officials in a precision strike launched on Saturday.

Trump initially anticipated the conflict could last about four weeks, but based on the current progress, he hinted that the timeline would be shortened. He stated:

"This will be done very quickly; we are moving far ahead of schedule in purging the leadership. We originally thought it would take at least four weeks, but we did it in a single day."

Exclude the "Never send troops" option and act only as necessary.

When discussing the sensitive topic of whether to engage in ground warfare, Trump displayed a tough stance. He made it clear that he had "no concerns" about sending ground troops and would not make a pre-emptive commitment like other leaders to never send troops.

"Unlike other presidents who always say 'we will never send ground troops,' I don't say that. I say 'we may not need them,' or 'if necessary,'" Trump said. He further explained that the trigger for this operation was intelligence indicating that Iran was secretly resuming nuclear fuel enrichment at a new location, and he believed that allowing a mad regime to acquire nuclear weapons would have far more disastrous consequences than regional conflict.

Ignoring the low approval ratings, he claims to represent the "silent masses".

Despite preliminary polls showing only 27% of Americans supporting the airstrikes, compared to 43% opposing them, Trump remains unfazed. He insists he is doing the "right thing" and believes these issues should have been addressed long ago.

Trump refuted claims of low poll numbers, asserting the existence of a "silent majority" supporting him. He emphasized:

"This isn't a polling issue. You can't let a country like Iran, ruled by madmen, have nuclear weapons. I think people are actually quite impressed with what's happening now."
