Did she really say that with a straight face?

Look, this is a game of chicken.
It's been a game of chicken from the very beginning.
The Iranians are betting that Trump will fold because of the midterm elections.
If they can keep oil prices high enough, the economic pain will be sufficient that the U.S.

That's all this has been.
What Trump has done repeatedly is say, look, I am willing to take the short-run pain.
I know this is going to be bad.
And the longer it goes, the worse it's going to get.
