When asked by a reporter about why the U.S. didn't share their Iran war plans with Japan, President Donald Trump said it was necessary for the element of surprise. The president followed this with a joke, saying, "Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Ok, why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"

“Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Ok, why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?”

“You believe in surprise, much more so than us.”
