Trump slams Biden for saying Israel shouldn’t target Iranian nuclear sites: ‘The craziest thing I’ve ever heard’

Former President Trump slammed President Biden for saying that Israel should not target Iranian nuclear sites, arguing the commander-in-chief’s remark was “not the right answer.”

“I mean, that’s the craziest thing I’ve ever heard. That’s the biggest risk we have. The biggest risk we have is nuclear,” Trump said in an interview with Fox News’ correspondent Bill Melugin right before his rally in Saginaw, Mich., on Thursday. 

“I mean, to make the statement, please leave their nuclear alone,” the GOP nominee continued. “I would tell you that that’s not the right answer. That was the craziest answer because, you know what? Soon, they’re going to have nuclear weapons. And then you’re going to have problems.” 

The ex-president’s remarks come as Iran launched a barrage of missiles on Tuesday toward Israel, an attack that seemed to be over within an hour of kicking off. Biden said on Wednesday that he does not support the Jewish State striking Iranian nuclear facilities. 

“All seven of us agree that they have a right to respond, but they should respond proportionally,” Biden said, referencing the Group of Seven (G7) bloc of countries. The president said his administration was in contact with Israeli officials in the aftermath of the missile attack. 

The GOP nominee criticized Biden and his current political rival, Vice President Harris, on Tuesday, suggesting the attack would not have occurred if he was the commander-in-chief and that if Harris wins in November, the “world goes up in smoke.”

“I’ve been talking about World War III for a long time, and I don’t want to make predictions because the predictions always come true,” Trump said. “But they are very close to global catastrophe. We have a nonexistent president and a nonexistent vice president who should be in charge. But nobody knows what’s going on. She was at a fundraiser in San Francisco.”
