Trump says ‘large amount’ of Iran leadership DEAD

( Right Scoop )

President Trump spoke to NBC News and told Kristin Welker that a large amount of the Iranian leadership has been killed since the war on Iran began this morning.

He also described today’s attacks as a ‘success’.

Here’s the reporting from NBC News:

In a phone call with NBC News, Trump said “a large amount of leadership” had been killed in Iran in today’s strikes. “I don’t mean like two people,” the president added without specifying a number. Asked about who will replace Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Trump said, “I don’t know, but at some point they’ll be calling me to ask who I’d like.” He added, “I’m only being a little sarcastic when I say that.” ..The president said today’s military strikes in Iran are “already a success.” “We’ve inflicted tremendous damage. It would take them years to rebuild,” he added. The president addressed reports that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed in airstrikes today, saying, “We feel that that is a correct story.” He added that “most” of Iran’s senior leadership is “gone,” saying, “The people that make all the decisions, most of them are gone.”

Fox News is also reporting exlcusively that 40 members of the Iranian leadership have been killed, and they are calling it a ‘decapitation’.

I’ll have more later today when I get back from church.
