President Donald Trump threatened Iran on Sunday with bombing and secondary tariffs if Tehran did not come to an agreement with Washington over its nuclear program.

In Trump’s first remarks since Iran rejected direct negotiations with Washington last week, he told NBC News that U.S. and Iranian officials were talking, but did not elaborate.

“If they don’t make a deal, there will be bombing,” Trump said in a telephone interview. “It will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen before.”

    If only the US hadn’t backed out of the original nuclear “deal” we had with Iran. Who’s administration was responsible for that again? I can’t seem to remember. Hmmm…

      Probably the same shithead that made economic deal with Canada and Mexico. The one that treats US “unfairly”.

    the likes of which they have never seen before

    I don’t think he’s ever heard of Iraq Iran war (which was backed by the US) then. Iran saw what a half million dead and close to a trillion dollars in losses. And the use of mustard gas, smallpox, and anthrax… I don’t think they will be particularly phased.

    Interestingly, the US has forward positioned B2s to Diego Garcia to be within easier striking range, along with support aircraft and crew. So they could drop the entire stock of MOABs to dig into hardened buried facilities pretty quickly if they decided to.
