周三，特朗普在得克萨斯州的一场集会上再次强调了他此前关于伊朗可能打击洛杉矶和圣迭戈的言论，并补充称美国不会让这种情况发生。特朗普在圣安东尼奥的一场竞选集会上表示：“你想看到创伤吗？你想看到问题吗？我前几天说过，让他们在途中向圣迭戈或洛杉矶发射导弹。你想看到一场恐怖景象吗？让他们打击圣迭戈。让他们打击洛杉矶。”他继续说道：“你想看到坏事发生吗？你想看到一个国家陷入自由落体吗？我们不会让那发生。”
President Trump doubled down on his comments suggesting Iran could hit Los Angeles and San Diego during a rally in Texas on Wednesday, adding that the U.S. would not let such a scenario play out. "You want to see trauma? You want to see problems? And I said it the other day, let them hit a missile into San Diego or Los Angeles on the way. You want to see a horror show? Let them hit San Diego. Let them hit Los Angeles,” Trump said, speaking at a campaign rally in San Antonio.
此前，特朗普周一在内布拉斯加州的一场集会上暗示伊朗可以“摧毁”洛杉矶和圣迭戈，此举引发了加州领导人的强烈抨击。
“You want to see some bad things happen? You want see a country in free fall? We're not going to let that happen,” he continued.
加州州长加文·纽森（民主党）周二告诉《山丘》杂志，特朗普“精神失常”，并呼吁启动第25修正案。
California leaders lashed out at Trump after he suggested at a rally in Nebraska on Monday that Iran could “take out” Los Angeles and San Diego.
洛杉矶市长卡伦·巴斯（民主党）称这些言论“危险，可能会危及我们的安全”，而圣迭戈市长托德·格洛里亚（民主党）在声明中表示，该市“不是附带损害”。然而，白宫强烈反驳了对这些言论的定性。
白宫通讯主任史蒂文·张周二在社交平台X上写道：“媒体对特朗普总统言论的恐慌反应并非基于现实。
The state’s Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) told The Hill on Tuesday that Trump was “mentally ill” and called for the 25th Amendment to be invoked. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) called the comments “dangerous and could potentially compromise our safety,” while San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria (D) said in a statement the city was “not collateral damage.”
他显然是在陈述，如果未阻止拥有核武器的伊朗，美国城市将受到威胁。正因为有了总统，美国才更安全。伊朗没有核武器，没有海军，没有空军，也没有钱。”
However, the White House pushed back fiercely against the characterization of the comments. “The media freakout over President Trump’s comments is not rooted in reality,” White House communications director Steven Cheung wrote Tuesday on the social platform X. “He was clearly stating U.S. cities would have been threatened if a nuclear Iran hadn’t been stopped. America is safer because of the President. Iran has no nuclear, no navy, no air force, and no money,” he said.
