In an interview broadcast Tuesday night, President Donald Trump told NewsNation host Katie Pavlich that he left instructions to wipe Iran “off the face of this earth” if he’s assassinated.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei posted multiple threats against Trump on social media, including depicting the president in a coffin. Trump said during the episode of “Katie Pavlich Tonight” that a violent death at the hands of an assassin would bring dire consequences to the theocratic regime.
“They shouldn’t be doing it, but I’ve left notification. Anything ever happens, the whole country is going to get blown up,” Trump told Pavlich. “Originally, Biden should have said something, when they made a statement. We always said, ‘Why isn’t Biden saying anything?’ Because he didn’t.”
