"That is what?" Trump asked. "The school in Iran," the reporter repeated. "I don't know about it," Trump replied.

"A new report says that the military investigation has found that the United States struck the school in Iran," one reporter noted. "As Commander and Chief, do you take responsibility for that?"

"That is what?" Trump asked.

"The school in Iran. A new report says the military investigation has found it was the United States that struck the school," the reporter repeated.

"I don't know about it," Trump replied dismissively.

The president has previously blamed Iran for striking the school.

3. Did reporters ask follow up questions?

[leftstreet]

5. They never do

[MustLoveBeagles]

10. It figures

I don't know why I thought this time would be different. Imagine if Biden had said that.

[NBachers]

14. I think of the rabid pack of jackals tearing at Biden, versus the purring nest of kittens for *rump.

[Skittles]

20. they would if it was a Dem president

oh yes

[BattleRow]

12. @#3. Such as ..."WHY don't you know about it ,Sir?

Isn't that your responsibility to know?"

I'm reminded of,although I wasn't alive then,of Harry Truman saying the buck stops here.

In this administration,where do the bucks actually go...nonstop

[MustLoveBeagles]

13. Those are the obvious follow ups I was thinking of

I guess their Republican bosses wouldn't like it if they followed up.

[kacekwl]

19. No

No never.

[IrishAfricanAmerican]

4. This is why the GOP is strapped with Trump...

no other human being can harangue for weeks about an issue on social media and in rallies, yet when a reporter asks about it he always replies, "I don't know anything about it." No one else could get away with this bullshit.

6. sounds like 25th amendment to me ?

The guy can even comprehend the damage he has done...we need an adult in the room.

JD whatever his name is can do it
Mike I like porn Johnson can do it

Who ?

9. Know Nothing needs to keep his big mouth shut.

I have never seen anyone who claims to be an expert on everything, know nothing about everything.

11. CNN expert was saying...

... it could have been a mistake or the weapon could have been knocked off course by Iranian air defenses.

I see it as disproportional coverage, primarily for ratings and gotcha. The Iranian Islamic Republic's theocratic, patriarchal, homophobic mullah regime murdered tens of thousands of Iranian protestersin the last couple of months. They're now openly threatening to do even worse. It does no honor to the dead children at the school to ignore the victims of the regime, past and future. It's just emotional self-indulgence being fed by a ratings chase, imo.

[LudwigPastorius]

15. I would consider your "but, what about..?" if this war was actually going to do a...

damn thing about changing the Iranian government for the better.

But, it hasn't, and it likely won't.

[gulliver]

18. That's very possible

From what I can tell from the apparent jubilation of Iranian Americans in demonstrations, they're happy we attacked. Will the Iranian people end to being in the same situation (or worse)? Time will tell.

Also, referring to my point about the protesters as a "but what about" is pretty glib and dismissive, imo.

16. If my Aunt had balls she'd be my Uncle

SCHOOLKIDS were killed en masse - with our weapons.

Some "CNN Expert" twisting himself into knots to absolve us of responsibility for the deaths of 150 innocent children is embarrassing. Just own it. We kill schoolkids with missiles and our clown President DGAF.

21. This could be one of those rare occasions Trump is actually telling the truth. He may really have no memory of that

school bombing due to his dementia.

23. For someone who keeps telling us how smart he is - (genius actually) he

sure plays dumb when shit gets real. And, I will hand it to him - he is really good at being dumb.
