Trump tells reporter he won't give him war plans — seconds after giving him war plans

President Donald Trump insisted that he wouldn't share war plans with a reporter just a second after sharing them with the man.

During a White House event on Thursday, a reporter asked Trump about his intentions for the war in Iran.

"Mr. President, do you intend to lift sanctions on Iranian oil, and do you intend to potentially put U.S. troops or more troops in the region?" the correspondent wondered.

"No, I'm not putting troops anywhere," Trump snapped. "If I were, I certainly wouldn't tell you. But I'm not putting troops. And we will do whatever is necessary to keep the price as well."

Trump continued by bragging about the stock market despite its recent setbacks.

"Everything was going great. The economy was great. Oil prices were very low," the president insisted. "We had great everything. And I saw what was happening in Iran, and I said, I hate to make this excursion, but we're going to have to do it."

"And I actually thought the numbers would be worse," he added. "I thought that it would go up more than it did. But we're doing this excursion. And when it's completed, we're going to have a much safer world."
