President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he’s given his advisers instructions to obliterate Iran if it assassinates him.

“If they did that they would be obliterated,” Trump said in an exchange with reporters while signing an executive order calling for the U.S. government to impose maximum pressure on Tehran. “I’ve left instructions if they do it, they get obliterated, there won’t be anything left.”

Who’s he kidding. If it happened, the Democrat Party would send a 747 full of cash to the Mullahs.

That sounds bigger than a MOAB. That sounds like turning Iran into a sheet of glass.

He’s firing a warning shot across the bow. Gives them pause to think.

"President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he’s given his advisers instructions to obliterate Iran if it assassinates him."

I will assume those "advisers" include VP Vance who would be the actual trigger puller/button pusher.

I don't have a problem with "diplomatically" causing the Iranians to shrink away from every connivance to assassinate PDJT.

How many decades have we had to heard the incessant drumbeat of, "Death to the Great Satan!" ?

When did the AP condemn the Iranian mullahs and ayatollahs for such denunciations of the US?

wonder what his instructions are if his assassins are from the same group as what JFK’s was.

“what would Vance do?”
Vance and Hegseth would reduce Iran to rubble.
And nothing would be off the table.

Uhmmm... There would be celebrations in the Democrat Party, no doubt. They would be very short-lived.

It would be the starting point for a full-scale civil war in the United States in which the Democrat Party would probably be exterminated, along with a great many of the individual members.

The Mullahs and the Democrats better pray that President Trump does not suffer so much as a hangnail while serving his full term in office.

God forbid, but Mullahs glowing in the dark is the least we should do if anything happens to our Trump

W could have mined their harbors and blow up Kharg island after 911. Instead he chose Saddam. Iran had been at war with us for 20+ years at the time.

I’m hoping that the Ayatollahs are on Israel’s list of targets, in their ongoing war against terrorism.

Whenever I think of nations with governments that “need killing,” Iran and North Korea always come to mind.
