Seriously, WTF is wrong with this guy?
Trump revealed submarine locations to Philippines president.
A call transcript between President Trump and Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte reveals that Trump boasted about two U.S. nuclear submarines near North Korea.
Trump, who spoke by phone with Duterte on April 29, addressed the possibility of a strike on North Korea using the submarines.
A transcript of the conversation was published by The Intercept.
“We have a lot of firepower over there,” Trump said in the transcript, an official document of the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs.
“We have two submarines — the best in the world — we have two nuclear submarines — not that we want to use them at all,” Trump continues.
“I’ve never seen anything like they are but we don’t have to use this but he could be crazy so we will see what happens.”
The Defense Department historically does not reveal the locations of its submarines, since keeping the vessels’ movements secret is key to their missions.
