Trump says would consider boots on ground in Iran if necessary: NY Post

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday told the New York Post he would not rule out sending ground troops into Iran if necessary.

"I don't have the yips with respect to boots on the ground -- like every president says, 'There will be no boots on the ground.' I don't say it," Trump told the Post in one of several brief interviews he has given since launching the Iran operation on Saturday.

"I say 'probably don't need them,' [or] 'if they were necessary,'" he said.
