Trump Draws Backlash After Remarks About Los Angeles and San Diego

President Donald Trump drew criticism after saying Iran could target Los Angeles and San Diego while discussing higher fuel prices linked to the war with Iran at a rally in Nebraska. He said Americans were paying only “a little bit” more for fuel and described the possibility of attacks on the two cities as a “small price to pay.” He also claimed the war was nearly over, without providing evidence for his assertion about Iran’s capability. The mayors of Los Angeles and San Diego condemned the remarks, saying their residents should not be treated as expendable in discussions about war.
