President Donald Trump appeared to explain the U.S. military’s renewed strikes on Iran by invoking a scene from the hit television drama “The West Wing.”
The Republican president shared the clip on Truth Social on Tuesday, the same day U.S. forces carried out a fresh round of strikes targeting Iranian air defense systems, ground control facilities and radar sites. U.S. Central Command described the operation as “a proportional response” after a U.S. Apache helicopter was downed in the Strait of Hormuz on Monday.
