Trump gave a statement on the assassination of Qasem Soleimani from Mar a Lago on Friday.
“We caught him in the act and terminated him.”
-Donald J. Trump January 3, 2020.
Trump also claimed “he does not seek regime change in Iran, but the nation’s use of ‘proxy fighters to destabilize its neighbors must end and it must end now.’”
And the spin:
“We took action last night to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war.”
-Donald J. Trump January 3, 2020
He did not take any questions from the press.
