Description

Tim Miller and Sam Stein take on Trump’s latest Oval Office comments on Iran. They discuss the contradictions, the absence of a clear strategy, and what it signals about how this war is being handled. Plus, JD Vance dodges a simple question about whether he actually supports the operation, raising questions about what’s really happening behind the scenes.

This Congress and that ‘cabinet’ will go down as the most feckless, idiotic, unpatriotic group of clowns in U.S. history.
