Trump lashes out at reporter who grilled him on Iran nuclear strikes: 'Stupid question'

President Donald Trump snapped at a reporter in the Oval Office on Monday after she asked whether he ruled out using nuclear weapons against Iran during the war, now in its six-month mark. Trump said there was “no reason” to use a nuclear weapon because the U.S. has already destroyed Iran’s military. He called the reporter’s question “stupid,” arguing that after defeating Iran militarily, the U.S. would not need nuclear weapons. The remarks came as Iran attacked U.S. military sites over the weekend, and U.S. forces struck Iranian rocket launchers on the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday, the first U.S. action in a month.
