We wish them well, we want them to win, but we're not fighting this fight for them.

There is a maturity that this president is bringing to the table with Marco Rubio, where they have a really clear understanding of they're rejecting both the Obama era appeasement and the Bush era nation building.

and saying, we are America first.

We want you to do what's right for you.

We want to see freedom everywhere, but we're trying to avoid chaos and create stability, which is why it was so important for the Saudis to get on board here as well.

He said in his initial message to the American people that this could be a possibility, which I thought was really correct to do, not to avoid the fact that this might happen.

He, of course, wants to avoid these kinds of casualties at all costs.

But again, he's protecting our children and grandchildren from having to face a nuclear Iran.

I think that if it does seem that the threat is big, I think that will change the calculus.

But as you pointed out, you're not seeing the Russians or the Chinese coming to the Iranian regime's defense.

They've sort of abandoned them.

That all turned out to be, you know, fake allyship.

So I don't know how long Iran is going to be able to hold on.

But, you know, I think it does change the calculus, not these three poor souls, precious souls who we mourn.

But if this continues and it seems like there is a big threat to mass casualties, I do think that will change the calculation for the president.
