Trump tells reporters he's considering 'ultimate option' for Iran (what?)

If you take him at his word, Trump just said he wants to nuke Iran. The man is nuts, the man is also President. Are we going to start another war? No one knows.

Speaking to reporters in Los Angeles today with his new national security adviser Robert O'Brien, Donald Trump said some weird and disjointed things about U.S. mideast policy including the statement that he is considering the 'ultimate option' for Iran.

Trump tells reporters the "ultimate option" is among the options he is considering for Iran.

"It's very easy to attack," Trump, in California, said when asked about Iran, but "how did going into Iraq work out?"

If we have to do something, well do it without hesitation.

There are many options. Theres the ultimate option, he said. https://t.co/1abmVr4EdJ
