"President Donald Trump shot back at a reporter who asked if the Iranian government believed his threats to bomb the country were credible, calling the question stupid in light of the recent U.S. action in Venezuela. Trump spoke to press onboard Air Force One Sunday about the continued protests in Iran and his promise last week that the U.S. would hit the country very hard where it hurts if protesters were killed. Do you think Iran takes your threats seriously? a reporter asked the president."
"He continued: Don't you think so? Wouldn't you say that they probably do at this point? After going through it for years with me, being hit, [Qasem] Soleimani, [Abu Bakr] al-Baghdadi, the Iran nuclear threat wiped out. Don't you think and then you just had Venezuela. Don't you think, she says, CNN, do you think they take your threat seriously? Wouldn't you say they do after all of the things we've done?"
President Donald Trump responded to a reporter questioning whether Iran takes U.S. threats seriously, calling the query 'stupid' and citing U.S. actions including the summer killing of Qasem Soleimani and the operation that led to capturing Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro. He asserted that Iran likely believes U.S. threats after being 'hit' repeatedly and claimed the Iran nuclear threat had been wiped out. He warned of strong options if Iranian protesters are harmed and said he was considering responses. Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei posted a scathing reply on X, warning that Trump will be overthrown.
