Trump calls in to Jake Tapper's show on Lindsey Graham

Trump Snaps at Jake Tapper: “Talk About the Reason You Asked Me to Speak”

Jake Tapper changes subject to Iran--Trump says to Stick to Lindsey Graham After Iran Question

President Trump called into CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday for what was supposed to be a discussion about the sudden death of Senator Lindsey Graham. But the interview quickly took a turn.

Jake Tapper brought up Graham’s support for recent U.S. strikes against Iran, then moved straight into questions about whether America was back at war and who controlled the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump was not interested in letting the segment get dragged away from Graham.

Tapper pressed again, asking about Iran’s claim that the Strait of Hormuz had been closed. Trump shut that down too.

“It’s open as far as we’re concerned. Don’t talk about it. Talk about the reason that you asked me to speak,” Trump said.

Tapper then moved back to Graham and asked if Trump had any final words for Americans about the senator. He did.
