SINGLE SOURCE
The web search results discuss Trump's involvement in the war and his threats, but none of the provided evidence explicitly states that he 'pushed to end the war with Iran quickly by stepping up bombing raids and making threats' as a unified narrative. The evidence points to him making threats and being involved in the conflict, but the specific claim of 'pushing to end it quickly by stepping up raids' is not independently corroborated.

“Donald Trump launched yet another personal attack on a female journalist on Thursday as he fielded questions about his ongoing Iran war.”
CORROBORATED
The claim is reported identically in two separate cross-reference sources (Flipboard). While Wikipedia provides context about Trump's behavior, the direct assertion about the specific event ('on Thursday, Donald Trump personally attacked a female journalist while answering questions about the Iran war') is confirmed by the cross-references, meeting the 2+ independent source requirement for corroboration.
