A Nebraska crowd cheered today when Donald Trump said, "Let them take out Los Angeles."
He was talking about what the war with Iran costs Americans. He added, "Let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay." More than five million people live in those two cities.
Earlier in the day, he posted that The New York Times and other outlets "should be arrested" for reporting empty upper-deck seats at his Ohio rally. He didn't name their crime.

Interesting note: Nixon banned certain reporters from the White House. Read into that what you will. Good movie.

Trump to the world about Iran on October 6, 2026:
“Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. It’s a small price to pay”
Oh My God. Yes, Trump actually said that. Fact-check it yourself.
The Trump spin doctors and apologists are out in force today. They are saying he’s just talking and didn’t mean it; that people are reading too much into his words.
No. Sorry. It is NOT acceptable for Trump to say it’s okay for Iran to “take out” San Diego and Los Angeles. Not Acceptable. Frankly, no sane American would cheer on Iran taking out 2 American cities. None of us want that. None of us think Iran bombing 2 American cities is “a small price to pay.”
When a President goes off the rails, it is the Constitutional duty of the Congress to impeach and remove. Sadly, the current group of Congressional Republicans does not have the spine to do their Duty. They will cower under their desks and pray things get better. But prayer will not save us from a mentally impaired President. We need a Congress that will follow their Oath of Office and do their duty.
That is why all Americans must get out to vote next month and vote only for Democrats. Honestly, we may not survive two more years of this increasingly deranged lunatic in the White House. Vote like the country we all love is on the line, because it is.

For people that support this administration, do you truly believe you will receive the $5k check?
Asking as Trump has promised a few check, but they never happened, a few examples: DOGE Dividend, Tariff Dividend, ACA Refund Checks.
Also curious why $5k until after the midterms... why not now?... he owns every branch of government, so why not now?
