During speech, Trump claims only Susie Wiles can order nuclear strikes, not him.

I was listening to Trumps speech today at the Saudi Investment Forum and he claimed that he can’t order a nuclear strike, only Susie Wiles (Chief of Staff) can. He said she was the most powerful person in the world.

That may be the only honest thing he has ever said, even if it was accidentally.

After all, we all know he’s incapable of willfully telling the truth.
