“Hey republicans and conservatives that live in L.A. and San Diego; how do you feel about your Fuhrer recommending that the cities you live in get attacked?” White wrote in a social media post Tuesday. “Let me take a wild guess: it was a joke, owning the libs, insert cult rhetoric here, etc. The allegiance these people have to this corrupt felon is so laughable and ignorant.”

Trump’s remarks garnered swift backlash from leaders of the blue state that has been a target of his administration. During his Nebraska speech, Trump insisted that soaring costs are “a small price to pay” to ensure Iran doesn’t have a nuclear weapon. He added, “They could take out a city. Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay.”
The president’s Rapid Response X account responded to the fierce criticism the next morning and claimed Trump “was saying the U.S. is fighting to STOP Iran from having the ability to take out LA and San Diego with a nuclear weapon — which they would if they had the chance.”
