"We think about it, it's possible," he said from Andrews Air Force Base near Washington. "We can take excerpts and publish them," said the Republican billionaire, who announced Sunday to the world the death of the self-proclaimed "caliph" of the IS, the most wanted man in the world.
Donald Trump watched the raid from the White House
In his televised address, the US president delivered a detailed account of the raid in which the IS leader was cornered by US forces before blowing himself up with his explosive belt. "He did not die like a hero, he died like a coward" and "like a dog" hammered Donald Trump, while claiming that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi "ran into a dead end tunnel, moaning, crying and shouting ". The US president said he had seen the US raid in real time from the White House.
