The president also capitalized on the death of Soleimani to hit Democrats who questioned whether the death of Soleimani was good strategy for the U.S.

Trump also “joked” that he was never going to leave office, because who cares about the Constitution?

The president spent a chunk of his time criticizing the Democrats debating on stage Tuesday night, including Senator Bernie Sanders and Senator Elizabeth Warren.
