Trump Issues Chilling Warning To Iran 

Former President Donald Trump responded strongly on Wednesday to Iran’s threats against him, stating that if he returns to the presidency, the country will face severe consequences.

Speaking at a campaign event in North Carolina, Trump revealed that he had received updates from national security officials regarding Iran’s attempts to target him.

“If I were the president, I would inform the threatening country, in this case, Iran, that if you do anything to harm this person, we are going to blow your largest cities and the country itself to smithereens,” he stated. “We’re going to blow it to smithereens. You can’t do that. And there would be no more threats. There would be no more threats.”

Excellent remarks from Trump about Iran trying to kill him: "No threat will shake me, no enemy will intimidate me, and I have never been more determined than I am today, and I will never back down"

During his remarks, he acknowledged the bipartisan support for increased funding to enhance Secret Service protection against assassination attempts.

He criticized the Biden-Harris administration for its perceived ineffectiveness in dealing with Iranian threats and noted the security measures in place for Iran’s president while they threaten a former U.S. president.

“Meanwhile, we have the president of Iran in our country this week, we have large security forces guarding him, and yet they are threatening our former president and the leading candidate to become the next president of the United States — certainly a strange set of circumstances,” he said. “Around the world, our enemies are desperate to prevent Donald Trump from returning to the White House, because they know I will make America great again. They don’t want that. Four years ago, our country was feared and respected, and our country will soon be feared and respected again.”

“No threat will shake me, no enemy will intimidate me, and I have never been more determined than I am today, and I will never back down in my fight to make America great again, which is what we’re doing,” Trump added. “So I want to make that statement because we are under threat. I have been threatened very directly, and I appreciate the agencies that we’ve been meeting with, but we’ve been threatened very directly by Iran, and I think you have to let them know, because the best way to do it is through the Office of the President that if you do any attacks on former presidents or candidates for president, your country gets blown to smithereens.”
