That would mean “hit harder” than Hiroshima and Nagasaki. What a moron! :facepalm:

President Donald Trump used 9/11 remembrance commemorations Wednesday to announce an unprecedented escalation of the US military assault on Afghanistan's Taliban -- just days after he wanted to hold peace talks with the insurgents.

… Trump said that over "the last four days" US forces have "hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before and that will continue."

But US troop levels in Afghanistan are only around 14,000, a fraction of the peak of about 100,000 in 2010.

"North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States," the president warned, responding to a reporter's question at his Bedminster Golf Club, where Trump has spent the last several days. "They will be met with fire, fury and frankly power the likes of which this world has never seen before."

“Because during the Obama administration, many great people and soldiers, a lot of soldiers, were being killed from long distance. [?!] I said, “If you keep doing that, you’re going to be hit harder than anybody has ever been hit by a country before.””
