Donald Trump had a busy day on Easter Monday. He started the day explaining to baffled children visiting the White House how Joe Biden used an autopen, then followed up by giving the children an impromptu speech about the war in Iran. Later that same day, he appeared to take credit for killing Osama bin Laden.
In a press briefing, Trump pointed to his other wartime “successes” to convince people that he does, in fact, have a handle on the war in Iran. First, he started with Venezuela. Trump claimed that Venezuela went as well as they could have hoped, saying the reason he kept the regime in place was that he didn’t want their entire society to fall apart like post-invasion Iraq during the George W. Bush era. Trump claimed the move made him so popular in Venezuela that, were he to run there for president, he would win too.
