'Been Lucky, Maybe That Won't Last': Trump Claims Iran Plotting To Kill Him

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday said that Iran wants to assassinate the US leader and that he is on "every list". 

Addressing reporters on the sidelines of the NATO Summit in Turkey, Trump said that although he has been "lucky" all this while, that might not continue to be the case.

"They want to take out the US leader, me. I'm on every list," Trump said.

"I saw a thing this morning, I'm on every single one of their lists. And so far, I guess I've been a little bit lucky. But that maybe doesn't last very long," he added.
