Donald Trump accused Iran of inventing attacks, mine-related incidents and other events to push oil prices higher, tying his allegation to tensions ahead of U.S. midterm elections. In an Oct. 22 post, Trump said more oil was passing through the Strait of Hormuz than before the conflict began. He used the comparison to support his claim about Iran's motives. The post described alleged attacks, mine-laying and other events in broad terms, without naming a specific incident. Trump also said Iran must never obtain nuclear weapons and asserted that it would not.
