Skip to Main ContentTrump Calls Retaliatory Strikes Against Iran A ‘Love Tap’President Donald Trump referred to retaliatory strikes that the U.S. has launched against Iranian targets as a “love tap” in an interview with ABC’s Rachel Scott on Thursday. “It's just a love tap,” he said in a bizarre effort to downplay the attacks. The U.S. military announced Thursday that it had engaged in retaliatory strikes on Iranian military sites accused of targeting U.S. forces, according to Reuters. Trump said that the military action didn’t change the state of the ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran as strikes from both parties raised questions about whether the truce was at risk. “No, no, the ceasefire is going. It's in effect,” he said.See All UpdatesClose
