“we don’t want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud”<\/strong> in September 2002 while trying to fearmonger the public into\u00a0getting on board with the Iraq invasion.<\/p>\nOn Friday night, Trump rallied supporters in Mobile, Alabama amid a tour through deep-red states to bolster Republican turnout ahead of the November midterms.<\/p>\n
On stage, he once again defended the decision to launch a war on Iran and repeated his line that voters should pretend that he is on the ballot<\/strong>. On higher oil as well as painful gas prices at the pump, he reiterated that it’s a\u00a0“small price” to pay to prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapon. He also claimed the Iran war will “probably” end soon after the midterms. That’s when Trump proclaimed:<\/p>\n“But remember about the oil: You’re paying a price, but boy, is that a small price than what it would be if these lunatics were allowed to have a nuclear weapon and used it on Mobile, Alabama<\/strong>.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
