Victor Davis Hanson: Iran in Shambles, Rubio Targets Regime Families, and the Return of the Impeachment Hoax
About this episode
Victor Davis Hanson discusses the implications of U.S. foreign policy on Iran and critiques the previous administration's dealings with the country.
CNN and former Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes are of the opinion that President Donald Trump, who has chosen the sword over the pen, will get a far worse deal out of the mullahs in Iran than his predecessor, Barack Obama. What did Iran get out of its deal with Obama, you might ask? For 10 years, Iran was sanctions-free, making $500 million a day in petrochemical sales. Thanks to figures like Ben Rhodes, it was like a “bonanza for the Houthis, Hamas, the people in Syria and Iraq that are their proxies, and, of course, Hezbollah,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” What did Iran get out of Trump in his first term? Crippling sanctions and a dead Revolutionary Guard leader. What did Iran get out of Trump in his second term? A dead ayatollah, decimated offensive capabilities, and a half-destroyed government begging America to come to the negotiating table.
