Speaking to reporters at the White House shortly after the incident at the Hilton Hotel in Washington, Trump said he did not believe the incident was related to the nearly two-month-long conflict. "I don't think so, but you never know," he told a reporter when asked if the shooting was connected to the war in Iran, adding: "It won't deter me from winning the war in Iran. I don't know if it had anything to do with it, honestly, I don't think so, based on what we know, but we'll continue to do a great job." Trump said investigators are working to determine the motive of the attacker, who was arrested and described as a "lone wolf." The suspected attacker is 31-year-old Cole Thomas Allen, who, according to Trump, attacked a security checkpoint armed with multiple weapons. On Saturday, he canceled his envoys' trip to Pakistan for peace talks on Iran, saying there was no point in sitting down and talking about nothing.
