Trump Calls Iran Crafty, Then Threatens To Erase Its Guard Corps

Trump Calls Iran Crafty, Then Threatens To Erase Its Guard Corps

Trump named the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as the target, comparing a possible strike campaign to his 2019 defeat of ISIS.

  • Trump told Fox Iranians are crafty, very good negotiators, but claims US holds all the cards.
  • He threatened to eliminate Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps the same way he destroyed ISIS in 2019.
  • It came three days after Trump declared the ceasefire over and CENTCOM struck Iran again.

Why it matters: Complimenting an adversary's skill while naming his elimination in the same breath is a verdict already made.
