President Donald Trump slammed a reporter after she asked if he intended to strike Iran's nuclear facilities.
"You don't seriously think I'm going to answer that question," Trump said at a White House event on Wednesday. "Will you strike the Iranian nuclear component? And what time exactly, sir? Sir, would you strike it? I mean, you don't know that I'm going to even do it."
"You don't know. I may do it. I may not do it," he continued. "I mean, nobody knows what I'm going to do."
Trump suggested he wasn't in the mood to negotiate, even though Iran was "in a lot of trouble."
"Do you think it's too late to now?" another reporter asked.
"Nothing's too late," the president insisted. "The only thing too late is [Fed Chair Jerome] Powell. Powell's too late. Too late Powell."
"We've totally captured the air," he said of Iran's airspace.
