President Donald Trump said he believes there are "no limits" to his power, reflecting on his takeaways from the Iran war. The comment came in an interview with Axios.
The statement follows a busy week for the president. He celebrated the United States' 250th anniversary and his 80th birthday with a UFC cage fight on the White House lawn. He then flew to France to negotiate an end to the conflict in the Middle East.
Despite signing what comedian Jimmy Kimmel called "the retreaty of Versailles," the Iran war does not appear to be resolved. Talks between the US and Iran in Switzerland were recently cancelled.
Still, Trump remains confident. His claim of unlimited authority has raised concerns about the limits of executive power.
