Trump makes Pearl Harbor joke at meeting with Japanese PM

President Trump cracked a joke about the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor during a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, as he responded to a question about why the U.S. did not inform allies ahead of its plans to attack Iran.
 
"You don't want to signal too much, you know, when we go in — we went in very hard and we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise," President Trump told reporters.
 
"Who knows better about surprise than Japan?" he added, drawing laughter in the Oval Office.
 
"Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?" the president followed up, quieting the room.
