Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

And that's why the United States had to get involved.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

That was his reasoning.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

The U.S.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Secretary of State, he said it, not me.

And so here we are, several months later, the United States has expended the vast, vast array of its advanced interceptors, costing some hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of this tiny little nation, while Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, they go dry.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

How does that make any sense?

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

I'm losing.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Genuinely, this demonstrates to me the level of which there has been a complete strategic inversion in the Trump administration.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

This will go down as one of the greatest follies in US history.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

It's not even hyperbolic now at this point.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

This is it.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

This is the big one in terms of the turning point.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Yes, I know everyone.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Oh, you're just saying that.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Listen, I don't just say these things willy-nilly because when you stack up the balance sheet and you look here at Japan, a G7 nation, South Korea, same thing, top trading partner of the United States.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Taiwan, I just described three nations which are in the top 10 trading partners of the United States who are like, I don't know.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

I don't know about this.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

And, Sagar, I don't even...

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Iran is the excuse, but it's also the truth.

Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar
5/26/26: Trump Bombs Iran, Prof Marandi On Negotiations, Trump Pauses Taiwan Arms Sales

Yes, that's right.
