No, President Trump
@realDonaldTrump did not call for Iran to take out Los Angeles or San Diego.
Trump was speaking about the possibility of a nuclear Iran blowing American cities off the map, explaining that this is exactly why America had to strike Iran in the first place:
“Remember, with the war, it’s just artificial. It’s a little bit high. It’s a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe.”
Trump then spoke about giving Iran more pain, because a nuclear Iran has the ability to wipe out American cities:
“They can take out a city. Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay, and it’s going to be over with very soon. It’s essentially almost over with, and they might keep going a little long, you know. They always say they have a big threshold for pain. They need it, let me tell you.”
It’s disgusting how elected Democrats and the mainstream media are lying about Trump’s remarks.
Talk about fake news.
