Ask you a different topic about a post by President Trump from yesterday responding to the death of former special counsel Robert Mueller.

He posted this quote, Robert Mueller just died.

Good.

I'm glad he's dead.

He can no longer hurt innocent people.

Do you think it's appropriate for the president of the United States to celebrate the death of an American citizen, someone who's a Bronze Star, Purple Heart recipient and who served in Vietnam?

But to the question of the president's post, I mean, Robert Mueller didn't order that raid.

Is it appropriate for the president to celebrate the death of any American citizen?

So you don't think that there's anything wrong with the Post saying good Robert Mueller's day?

All right.

Treasury Secretary Scott Besson, thank you as always for being here.

Really appreciate it.

You know, Iran talks about death to Israel, death to America.

So we're fighting our battle for sure, but we're fighting the free world's battle against the barbarians.

The good news is that these 22 countries are following the president's lead on making sure that we free up the Strait of Hormuz.

Obviously, the military campaign is still ongoing.

So that's why we are working now, these countries together and also with the U.S.

to make sure that we assess what, when and how we can do this.

Again, as President Trump said during the press break yesterday when he was going out to Marine One, he's not going to give away what we're going to do.

As President Trump always does, he's leaving all options on the table.
