Trump: U.S. Will Take The “Nuclear Dust” From Iran, “We Need The Biggest Excavators You Can Imagine”

President Donald Trump addressed a Turning Point USA event in Phoenix on Friday, declaring that Iran would never obtain a nuclear weapon and claiming the U.S. would recover bombed nuclear material with Iran’s cooperation.

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: We will remain in full force and effect as it pertains to Iran until such time as our transaction with Iran is 100% complete and fully signed. And this process, we’re getting along well, but who knows, who knows with anyone, but who knows with Iran in particular, this process should go very quickly. Hopefully that most of the points are already negotiated and agreed to. You’ll be very happy. The USA will get all nuclear dust. You know what the nuclear dust is? That was that white powdery substance created by our B-2 bombers, those great B-2 bombers late one evening, seven months ago. No money will exchange hands in any way, shape or form. Iran will be, and you know how we’re going to get the dust, right? Iran, we were going to take it anyway, but taking it, taking it that way is slightly more dangerous, but we were going to get it anyway. But Iran, with the help of the USA, has removed or is removing all of the sea mines. And most importantly, it never agreed, and you’ll understand, they will never have a nuclear weapon. They will never have a nuclear weapon. And somebody said, how are we going to get the nuclear dust? We’re going to get it by going in with Iran, with lots of excavators, because the B-2s, remember when fake news CNN said, well, maybe obliteration is too strong a word, obliteration. That’s so deep. We need the biggest excavators you can imagine. But we’re going to go in together with Iran, we’re going to get it, and we’re going to take it back home to the USA. Very simple.
