Former President Donald Trump called for Iran to be annihilated if the US adversary were to ever assassinate him.
Trump, 78, revealed his wish for ferocious retaliation in a Truth Social post on Thursday, in which he included a clip of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussing the Islamic Republic’s assassination threats during his address to Congress.
“If they do ‘assassinate President Trump,’ which is always a possibility, I hope that America obliterates Iran, wipes it off the face of the Earth,” the Republican nominee for president said.
“If that does not happen, American Leaders will be considered ‘gutless’ cowards!” he added.
Trump’s call for his hypothetical death to be avenged comes less than two weeks after an would-be assassin’s bullet grazed his ear at a Butler, Pa., campaign rally, leaving him bloodied, two rally-goers injured and one man, 50-year-old hero firefighter Corey Comperatore, dead.
