Vice President JD Vance privately expressed skepticism about U.S. military strikes on Iran before President Donald Trump decided to proceed with the operation, according to a new report. The officials said Vance raised concerns internally but ultimately supported the decision once it was made.
Two senior Trump officials told the news outlet that Vance had questioned the wisdom of the strikes during internal discussions. One official described the vice president as "skeptical," "worried about success" and generally opposed to a war with Iran. Another said Vance's role was to present different viewpoints to the president, adding that "once the decision has been made, he's fully on board."
