Donald Trump has been slammed following a bizarre interview where he issued a ‘danger’ warning to a reporter.
As tensions begin boil over in the Middle East between Israel and Iran, President Trump is said to be weighing up whether the US will participate in the conflict.
While Trump initially said: “I may do it, I may not do it,” when asked whether the country would join the conflict earlier this week, it appears US involvement is becoming more likely. The POTUS is said to be making a decision within the next two weeks.
Speaking to reporters immediately after landing in New Jersey on Friday (June 20), Trump expressed concern over what he fears is Iran’s nuclear capabilities and said his director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, was ‘wrong’ when she said the US believed Iran wasn’t building a nuclear weapon.
However, in a bizarre segment of the live interview, Trump suggested reporters on the ground were in ‘danger’ just by talking to him about it.
A journalist asked him if he was worried if Iran proxies would ‘wage terror attacks against American targets abroad’ if he were to order military action, to which he said: “We’re always concerned about that and we have to take them out and be very strong.
“You’re even in danger talking to me right now, do you know that?”
