President Donald Trump spoke from the White House Wednesday after Iran fired more than a dozen ballistic missiles at two Iraqi air bases housing U.S. forces in retaliation to the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani. Trump said no Americans or Iraqis were harmed in Iran's attack, and Iran appears to be standing down. The U.S., according to Trump, will impose further economic sanctions on Iran, and that the "United States is ready to embrace peace." Aired on 1/8/20.

President Trump: No Americans, Iraqis Harmed In Iran Missile Attack, New Sanctions Coming | MSNBC
“There is no bigger fool than the fool who knows not he is a fool.” — RHM
@Dave Schultz My quote is my own. Yours is not. Try to learn to think for yourself. But thanks for stepping up and making my point….lol.
“You know less than nothing. If you at least knew you knew nothing… that’d be something.”
@Tucker Carlson “After Iran’s escalating terrorism, Trump takes out Soleimani The number one terrorist on the planet.”
After Trump re-neg’d on our deal and then egged them into it.
“MAGA”
AWAG… America Was Always Great
“winning biggly”
Trump’s whole shtick’s billing losses as wins, what makes this different?
Is he ok? it sounds like he just ran up a flight of stairs.
It’s exhausting taking an elevator/escalator.
David Martinez what ?😳
@Terry Daktyl Hehehe that’s a good one but that wouldn’t make you stiff like Snuffalufagis. Lol
@Lauria Owens Nothing about the Trump Reich makes me stiff.
Was anyone else hoping for the heart attack?
Is he on drug’s like his speech slurred… drags ..
Are you mad that no one died?
@TwelveStep up all night trying to write the speech. Like in Helsinki.
@ff
Trump was giving Pelosi mouth to mouth before he came out.
TwelveStep He’s the leader of the free world he sounds like his jaw is sore from giving Putin head in Helsinki
Your addressing the nation yet speaking in gibberish that’s the problem you oaf?😳
Too funny. This imbecile doesn’t understand a single word he reading!!!
@Hazel McCloy eating fast food and watching faux news…
@B Phill This statement makes you look like a fool as Obama was known for giving great speeches. He was attacked at the time for being a great speaker only when using a teleprompter. The irony was that W Bush was still President and couldn’t with one and Trump is worse. He screwed up yet another word during this speech. What is he saying at 7:00 and there was at least another as well.
Cousin Jeff Play fair or I’ll separate you guys
B Phill What?🤔
The honey boo boo of presidents.. breathless and trying ebonics for the first time.
At the threshold of conviction, the Orangeutan uses standard Republican CYA: war.
DEMOCRATS have ZERO accomplishments. This is what everyone is talking about.
@Charles
Dayum Charles lol
You just murdered the dude 😂
@My Goddess Shasta Thanks Goddess. It wasn’t very challenging. Like the Prez debates will be for the Trumper.
@Dave Schultz 40 hour work week, OSHA, social security (currently getting sucked dry by Republicans)…
The General on the right, appears to be deeply concerned; the one on the left, pretending he’s not here.
David and the progressives want all poor people in the administration like the ignorant Democrat bartender AOC. Is there any more proof of liberalism is a mental disorder?
I’m with you, the one on the right looks like he could shoot Trump.
@PDIDDYSWORLD did you see Pence mouth a few words like he was keeping Trump on track of what they wanted to tell us?
Good Lord why is he out of breathe it sounds like he’s just ran 10 miles
Cocaine
Trump and the sentence “ran 10 miles” has never existed
I don’t think the man can run, he can barely walk… shuffle shuffle.
It’s getting more and more difficult to look at that guy.
@Dave Schultz – Auh yeah, Big “D” sounds off. You keep hammering that noise home, big “D”….you da man. But you should understand, the Impeachment is Donald’s stain….not yours. There is still time for you to get out and join the real world….you know, live a “normal” life.
@Gerda White , Big “D” out!
@rapunzel eh? “try looking at the monosyllable knuckledraggers at his rallies”
You mean: your fellow Americans?
@Dave Schultz “Stock markets up in record territory.”
Thanks to the recovery under the Obama Admin
“Impeachment”
Is complete. Trump’s officially impeached.
“Iran is still licking it’s wounds and burying Terrorists”
Obama got Osama Bin Laden that Bush, Jr. tried for over a decade to get.
“The DEMOCRAT have ZERO accomplishments and TRUMP keeps WINNING”
This must be more of that Trump “truth hyperbole”.
“..for those who want to embrace peace…” (as long as they pay club membership dues)
🤦♂️he cant pronounce tolerate…
He’s slurring his speech like my stepdad did when he was f’ed up.
I noticed that too. Actually, his whole fake speech gave me a stomach ache.
It’s over two syllables. Of course he can’t pronounce it properly.
@Lindsày Reeves it gives me a headache.
I guess this is the same breath he had when he was informed that he was been drafted
Festus Penda Asino 🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜
Weren’t the nose-holes in his Human Suit cut large enough for proper air-flow?
Yup, he snorted drugs before this “speech.”
All that Adderall he snorted!
Tracy Stone
LMFAO STUPID DemonRats he’s drug free !!! Don’t even drink!!
Not like Nancy Pelosi total alcoholic!!!!LMFAO 😃😄😄
@John Is going to make you mad Your text just proves you belong in his cult. I think your text is just about the ONLY one pro-trump on this page.But the dumber the better he says.You must be at the top of his club.
@L CM WOW You gotta team up with John is going to make you made. You belong to the same club
Trish6704 wait that’s laughable that you say I’m the only pro trump on this post , yet right above your post is a pro trump. That’s what you call irony you moron .
Why does every speech turn into his greatest hits (which really aren’t his to claim)
Lol
It’s called Narcissism!! And who Believes his GOOD LYING AS$?!!
Hannah Clark They just get better and better ❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️
Jelly lol
@Dave Waldon sniffier and sniffier.
More lies, like we got when we attacked Iraq, Republicans love wars
@Dave Schultz “Peace through strength. Because of Trump, there is no war.”
Yea, we should all thank the draft dodger for not starting, or serving in, a war.
@Tucker Carlson “You did not get the nuclear war you wanted”
Yer ability to think clearly’s a mess.
“Trump wins again and wins in November”
We re-elected Bush, Jr. after we knew we went to Iraq for less than truthful reasons… we’re certainly dumb enough to re-elect this clownshoe.
mastermason10 traded a couple of buildings for the death of a terrorist. Trump wins again!
wait a min, this MF is on drugs lololol
Ahh the grand entrance. I am “The Light” “The Chosen One”.
@bob si dog
Go read the comments section outside this thread. It’s mostly nuts. Literally people making malicious and negative comments about Donald Trump.
@Dianne Fulton
All I’m saying is that people can be mistaken in some situations about something being from God. When Democrats and Republicans both claim opposite things about trump and both claim the spirit told them. I didn’t say you specifically. Please calm down.
Pray Unceasingly
yep, people use a fictional god claim to push their agenda ~ from parents to church leaders to politicians. Manipulators, cons, and controlling abusers all the way down.
What. Is WRONG Whit YoU‼️‼️
@bob si dog
Unfortunately! Yet I still believe there is a creator and Christ did come from the creator, even is the creator.
His body language is full of lies and stupidity
Even at a time like this,….he makes it all about him.
