President Trump on Friday claimed he has left instructions to bomb Iran "at levels that they've never seen before" should Tehran assassinate him.

"I've been on their list for a long time. That's what we're dealing with," he told the New York Post. "The only thing is, I've left instructions " if anything happens, to just literally bomb them at levels that they've never seen before."

The interview comes a day after The Wall Street Journal reported that Israel recently shared intelligence with the U.S. indicating a new plot from Iran to assassinate Trump.

"But CNN, citing U.S. officials, reported that the new Israeli intelligence could have been an attempt to influence Trump's stance as he weighs whether to escalate military action against Iran.

Israel has pushed for increased military intervention in the Middle East while Trump has opted for continuing negotiations, though on Friday he announced a fragile ceasefire between Washington and Tehran was "over."

Hmmm.... Americans just polled him as the Worst American in History.

Perhaps we could throw them a party if they helped us out that much?

Can the US military take orders from a dead guy?

Of course, we started this by taking out their horrible Dear Leader, so why would it surprise us if they returned the favor?

Pres Trump is the President of the United Sates.

Any attack upon him is an attack upon our Country.

Period. Full stop.

Well, your country did murder their leader. The concept is similar.

I would definitely send them to bed with no dinner if they did that... but I'm listening to an argument at The Enforcer that the response to Iran assassinating DJT should or should not be nuking Iran.

Definitely no dinner!

But then, considering Shady would be the President, perhaps we should force them to take Marco Rubio offa our hands.

He would LOVE being the Napoleon of Iran!

So...

At levels they've never seen before would be what, 3 days of bombing?

Given his "instructions" wouldn't mean s*&^, I'm guessing they'll take the exchange.
