When President Trump turned to Marco Rubio and JD Vance for an update on the Iran war, the contrast was immediate and telling.
Rubio framed the conflict as necessary, even beneficial, calling it 'a favour' to both the US and the wider world. However, Vance took a different path and remarked on 'options' now available to Washington and reiterated that Iran must not acquire a nuclear weapon. Then, rather abruptly, he pivoted to wishing US troops a happy Easter.
