CBS News has not independently confirmed the existence of survivors, but the White House has <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-alleged-drug-boat-strike-venezuela-hegseth\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">confirmed<\/a><\/span> the boat was struck more than once on Sept. 2.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know what they have, but whatever they have we&#8217;ll certainly release, no problem,&#8221; the president said of any strike footage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A reporter asked the president in the Oval Office if Hegseth, Adm. Frank Bradley or others should be punished if survivors were indeed clinging to the boat. The administration has suggested that Bradley, the commander of the operation, gave the order for the second strike and was within his rights to do so.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The president responded, &#8220;I think you&#8217;re going to find that this is war,&#8221; saying drugs smuggled into the United States have killed millions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think you&#8217;re going to find that there&#8217;s a very receptive ear to doing exactly what they&#8217;re doing, taking out those boats,&#8221; Mr. Trump added.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The president was pressed again on if he supports a decision to kill survivors, if that&#8217;s what happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, I support the decision to knock out the boats,&#8221; he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, the president told reporters on Air Force One that he &#8220;wouldn&#8217;t have wanted&#8221; a second strike on the boat. But since then, the administration has defended Hegseth and his leadership.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The president on Wednesday also repeated a threat from earlier this week that <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-says-he-is-planning-land-strikes-on-alleged-drug-traffickers-very-soon\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">land strikes in Venezuela<\/a><\/span> could begin soon, as tensions with President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro run high. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Very soon, we&#8217;re going to start doing it on land, too,&#8221; he said. &#8220;You know, the land is much easier &#8230; And we know the routes they take. We know everything about them. We know where they live. We know where the bad ones live. And we&#8217;re going to start that very soon, too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The president has hinted for months that he may broaden his administration&#8217;s sea-based strikes to include accused drug targets on land, telling reporters in October that he is &#8220;totally prepared&#8221; to carry out land strikes. If the president takes the step of ordering strikes on targets within Latin American countries, it would significantly expand the Trump administration&#8217;s anti-drug trafficking operations, which\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/us-strikes-another-alleged-drug-boat-eastern-pacific\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">have hit upward<\/a><\/span>\u00a0of 20 alleged drug boats in the Caribbean and Pacific, killing more than 80 people.<\/p>\n<p>The boat strikes are already controversial.
