Summary
Trump claims he has standing orders for military retaliation against Iran if they target him, but no “dead man’s switch” exists—his successor, the VP, would decide any response. Iran’s supreme leader vows revenge for recent deaths, with mourners calling for Trump’s assassination, while Israel warned U.S. officials of specific plots. Though Trump mentioned missiles, not nukes, and past warnings were issued against attacks on U.S. leaders—including one against John Bolton—this is the first time he’s publicly acknowledged being targeted. Any attack on him would be seen as an act of war. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
