LOS ANGELES: California governor Gavin Newsom has lashed out at president Donald Trump for remarks to a crowd of his supporters in Nebraska's farm belt suggesting that Iran could "take out" a major US city like Los Angeles or San Diego.
Newsom denounced the Republican president as "deranged and dangerous" following Trump's appearance at a political rally in Grand Island, Nebraska, on Monday, about a month before midterm elections that could sweep Democrats back in control of Congress.
Trump drew fire for comments he delivered as he spoke about American wartime economic sacrifices, saying he was determined to "see a tremendous victory, because it verifies all the things we did."
