"We're respected all over the world. You saw that with China just recently. You saw that in Venezuela. You saw that right now in Iran. Everything's gone. Their Navy's gone. Their air force is gone. Just about everything. You know, the only question is, do we go in and finish it up or are they going to be signing a document? Let's see what happens."

"People don't want them to have a nuclear weapon, and they will not have a nuclear weapon. And they want to make a deal so badly. We'll see what happens. But we hit them very hard, but we may have to hit them even harder, but maybe not. But we're not going to let Iran have a nuclear weapon and blow up the entire Middle East, Israel, the entire Middle East, and then come here for you. Not going to happen."

"We'll see what happens," Trump said during a commencement address at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy.

He said Iran's military might is largely gone, and the only question is whether the U.S. goes back to finish the job or will Iran sign a deal.

Trump said earlier on Wednesday that negotiations with Iran were in the final stages, while warning of additional attacks unless Iran agrees to a deal on its nuclear program.
