If Trump was President on December 7, 1941

Reporter: President Trump, what are you going to do after the attack on Pearl Harbor?

Trump: Well, Pearl Harbor was a great win for America. We shot down many, many Japanese planes. Many people don’t want to admit this, they just want me to look bad.

Reporter: Sir, four of our battle ships were sunk...

Trump: Who are you with? New York Times? Figures...you folks just write fax news. Next question.

Reporter: What will our military response be? Will we attack Japan?

Trump: Well, it is important we have good relations with Japan and I am good friends with the Prime Minister Tojo. I’m sure we can work this out. I’m going to send a very stern letter to him and tell him to cut this out. We have a great trade deal we are working on right now.
