Donald Trump said Sunday that if no peace deal is reached with Iran in the next 48 hours, “we’re blowing up the entire country.”
The president made the threat Sunday to ABC News’ senior political correspondent Rachel Scott in response to a question regarding whether his previously stated timeline of two to three weeks for a deal was still accurate.
Concerns have been raised about targeting civilian infrastructure in Iran and the consequences that could bring.
As Trump liked to say to his opponents, he doesn’t have the cards.
I mean…he’s the one that controls earths largest supply of nukes. He has the cards. It’s just a matter of if the order will be followed.
