A little later, Trump could be heard addressing his followers:

„You want to know about the oil prices? Total disaster. And look, did I start this war with Iran? Yeah, maybe I did, we struck first, it was a whole thing, everybody wanted it done and we did it. But now? Total nightmare - nobody could see this coming! Nobody has ever seen gas prices do numbers like this.

And Iran? Look, they're playing games to make me lose the midterms. Do oil prices actually go down right after the election? Honestly? I have absolutely no clue, I just needed to say something to keep people from panicking, so trust me on this!

And by the way, yesterday I told them—$5,000 cash for everyone if we win! Where's it coming from? Who knows, tariffs, a little more debt, another trillion or so, who is counting when my future is at stake! Because if we lose Congress, they’re going to impeach me for things you wouldn't even believe! So please, just vote. Wow, that serum is strong. Tremendous water, get me some water.“
