Description

It turns out that in both basketball and war, you can only win if you win the second half. The media and their allies keep saying that the only way to win the war in Iran is to lose: to let Iran have a path toward a bomb, give them a boatload of cash, and beg them to leave the Strait of Hormuz alone. The alternative, they say, is “endless war.” That’s dumb. We can also do this thing called winning. Which is what it seems President Trump may now be considering anew. -- -- -- Today's Sponsors: Cardiff - If you've been in business for at least a year, and are pulling in $20,000 a month in revenue, apply now for up to $500,000 in same day business funding at https://Cardiff.co/SHAPIRO Carshield - CarShield is offering our listeners 20% with the code SHAPIRO at https://CarShield.com/SHAPIRO Policygenius - Head to https://policygenius.com/SHAPIRO to compare life insurance quotes from top companies and see how much you could save. -- -- -- LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for new videos daily: https://youtube.com/@benshapiro Click here to join the member-exclusive portion of my show: https://dwplus.watch/BenShapiroMemberExclusive -- -- -- DailyWire+ Become a Daily Wire Member and watch all of our content ad-free: https://www.dailywire.com/subscribe This Father’s Day, give Dad the gift of DailyWire+ 45% off all Gift Memberships | New Annual Memberships Promo Code: DAD45 📲 Download the free Daily Wire app today on iPhone, Android, Roku, Apple TV, Samsung, and more. 📰 Follow me on the Daily Wire app or DailyWire.com to read my daily articles and receive my Friday newsletter. 📘 My book "Lions and Scavengers: The True Story of America (and Her Critics)" is available here: https://dwplus.shop/LionsandScavengers 🪒 Stop giving your money to woke corporations that hate you.
