We are spending billions of dollars on projects that you'll never actually see deployed in the battlefield.

And so I would hope that this is the crack that like breaks the camel's back in a way, the straw that breaks the camel's back.

And Trump kind of says, you know, we don't need the 200 billion in supplemental funding.

Let's figure out an off ramp here.

But I will say, and I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, I think if they pass 200 billion in supplemental funding, you're going to see a blue wave of like epic proportion in November.

Well, I think, and I've said this a long time, is that the Trump administration hasn't prosecuted this war adequately, right?

The difference between today and 2003, when Bush brought us into Iraq, was that when Bush brought us into Iraq, support for the war in Iraq was over 80%, over 90% in some polls.

And then he went in the Oval Office, he went during a State of the Union address, and he repeatedly prosecuted, based on false information, why we needed to go into Iraq.

Trump today is just saying, screw you.

I know better than you.

I don't have to explain to you why we're doing this or what the outcomes are going to be.

Just trust me, bro.

Trust me, bro, only gets you so far with so many people.

And that's why the approval rating for the war when it first was launched was already underwater, under 50%.

And I guarantee you, if you polled the American people today, the approval for the war will somewhere be in the low 40s, high 30s.

That's not a winning coalition in any way.

Yeah, I mean, it's coming.

I don't think, and when people say boots on the ground, do I think we're going to have military troops in Tehran?

No, I mean, I say that now, no, but three months from now, we may very well have that.

What boots on the ground looks like is they're going to try to secure Karg Island where the oil facilities are.
