Nobody can say Donald Trump wasn’t told that going to war with Iran was a terrible idea.
JD Vance was openly skeptical and tried to stop it. Marco Rubio was “tepid” on the idea. Former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center Joe Kent resigned, saying there was no “imminent threat” from Iran to justify it. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine warned Trump of “significant risks” inherent to the plan. Tucker Carlson met with Trump three times to try to convince him it would be a disaster.
