But when it comes to crime,
Trump’ll fix it in no time —
He’ll eradicate it in one “rough, nasty and violent” day.

Verbatim

“If we don’t stop them or if we didn’t stop them or if we didn’t start, you would have had a nuclear war and they would have taken out many countries because you know what? They’re sick people. They’re angry, they’re sick.”

— President Trump, speaking to reporters about his decision to attack Iran.

“We understand some will reflexively oppose this, people don’t love the idea of war. But people like winners. They are drawn to it. If we do this quickly, I think it will be seen as what it is: successful.”

— A Trump adviser, quoted by NBC News, dismissing the anger of the president’s America First base over attacking Iran.
