Trump Bootlicker Forced Into Humiliating Apology for War Dead Insult

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has been forced to publicly apologize for wrongly claiming that no Americans have been killed in President Trump’s war on Iran.

Lutnick made the shocking false assertion during an appearance on CNBC while defending his boss’ approach to the conflict. “The way the president is playing Iran, there haven’t been American deaths; it’s really just an economic choke-out,” Lutnick said.

Lutnick wrongly claimed no Americans have died in the war, when 18 military personnel have been killed and over 750 others wounded.  / Evelyn Hockstein / REUTERS
