Trump threatens complete decimation of Iran if assassinated: ‘Orders have already been given’

Published



President Donald Trump on Friday evening announced that he has preemptively given orders for Iran’s complete decimation should the country follow through on threats to assassinate him. 

Trump previously told the New York Post that he has left “instructions…to just literally bomb them at levels that they’ve never seen before,” if Iran kills him. The president issued a public statement to Truth Social hours later, reiterating that 1,000 missiles and “thousands of more” to follow are ready to hit Iran over the course of at least one year if it assassinates him or attempts to do so.
