Trump reportedly calls potential attacks on US cities a ‘small price’ for victory over Iran

US President Donald Trump reportedly described the hypothetical destruction of Los Angeles and San Diego by Iran as a “small price” for victory in a war against Tehran.

The account provided attributes the remarks to Trump but does not specify when or where he made them, or provide a full transcript establishing their context.

The scenario contrasts with Iran’s missile capabilities: Tehran does not possess missiles capable of striking the United States, according to the same account.

The reported remarks come amid assertions by the Iranian military that it possesses new weapons. No details were provided about those weapons or their range, and the claim does not establish an ability to strike the two American cities.
