President Trump made one thing plain on Wednesday: the United States is not going to rebuild Iran. The setting was an exchange with Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy, and the subject was a report that had been making the rounds — that Gulf allies might put up as much as $300 billion to rebuild Iran, with Washington’s blessing, as part of the ceasefire taking shape between the two countries.
