to never develop a nuclear weapon and gave the Americans and the Europeans the ability to do in-depth inspections every single day on Iranian territory to make sure that they were only pursuing a civilian nuclear weapons program.

So if at the end of this, you know, we just get a slightly different version of Obama's nuclear deal, that would be, A, ironic.

And B, it would be a ridiculous outcome with a dozen or more Americans having been killed and billions of dollars of American taxpayer money wasted just to come out with basically the same agreement that we had before Trump became president.

And again, I just, I just like want to underscore, um,

that these guys have no idea what they're doing.

I mean, this is buffoonery.

Vance flying over there for 24 hours, right?

When John Kerry negotiated that deal and the Secretary of Energy, they would sit at these negotiating tables for weeks at a time

And so there's no incentive for the Iranians to really negotiate when they get to see J.D.

Vance for 24 hours and then he leaves.

So they're not setting up any construct in which there's likely to be a meaningful negotiation.

And the Iranians know that.

No, because I don't see an objective, at least amongst those that have been articulated by the president, that has a military answer.

So you cannot bomb out of existence knowledge.

So yes, you can set back their nuclear program, likely only for a handful of months, but not much longer than that.

What we're learning is there is no way to eliminate their missile and drone program

through airstrikes alone.

Hegseth goes on TV and he lies.

He says, well, we destroyed their missile program.

90% of it is gone.
