US President Donald Trump says the United States will ‘wipe’ out Iran if the country assassinates him.
“The whole country is going to get blown up,” Trump says in an interview on NewsNation’s “Katie Pavlich Tonight.”
“I have very firm instructions — anything happens, they’re going to wipe them off the face of this earth,” he adds. Iran on Tuesday warned Trump not to take any action against the country’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, days after the US president called for an end to Khamenei’s nearly 40-year reign.
“Trump knows that if any hand of aggression is extended toward our leader, we not only cut that hand but also we will set fire to their world,” said Gen. Abolfazl Shekarchi, a spokesperson for Iran’s armed forces.
