President Trump welcomed Conan, the dog who was injured in the raid that killed ISIS leader al-Baghdadi, to the White House on Monday.
"They were going to put a muzzle on the dog, and I thought that was a good idea, but then it gets even more violent," Trump said."But no, the dog is incredible. Actually incredible. We spent some good time with it. So brilliant. So smart."
He said he had asked the dog's handler,"What chance would a strong man have, a really strong tough fighter, what chance would this person have against Conan without the guns?" As Pence stood nearby scratching Conan, Trump told Reuters reporter Jeff Mason,"You're very lucky he's not in a bad mood today."
