President Donald Trump said the United States has Iran “down 100 percent” in agreeing to nuclear inspections by the U.N. nuclear watchdog, even though reports say Iran has denied this.

“They’re wrong, they know they’re wrong,” Trump told reporters Tuesday as he deplaned in Pennsylvania on his way to tour a Mack Trucks facility.
