After single-handedly launching a war against Iran and ballooning U.S. inflation a desperate President Donald Trump has flailed his way into a hasty Iran War agreement that is infuriating his once beholden team of right-wing allies and news media.
MS NOW host Melissa Murray had more than enough video outrage to vent on Wednesday evening, pointing out that “top MAGA and Fox News figures are not being shy about weighing in.”
“They’re better off than they were before the hostilities began,” one former GOP lawmaker railed on Fox News.
“I hate to say this in this deal. The biggest loser is the United States and India,” said “Bolling” host Eric Bolling.
“I will say that the early returns do not look wildly promising at this point,” lamented MAGA influencer Ben Shapiro. “… Let’s be very clear. This is the vice president’s deal. It does not have support.”
“America has given up all of its leverage in this situation,” wailed another Fox News panelist.
“The regime has not changed,” argued former GOP lawmaker and show host Trey Gowdy. “They’re just richer! … I didn’t believe it. I thought somebody was spoofing me. … How about the guys and gals that bled and died on our country’s behalf? Where’s their fun? I didn’t see that in MOU.”
“I do have concerns about the memorandum of understanding,” confessed former Trump vice president Mike Pence to Fox.
“Unless you were home schooled by a day drinker. No one’s confident that Iran’s going to do anything,” said U.S. Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.)
Trump’s high-speed memorandum of understanding would bring his disastrous attack on Iran to a close, but it would also grant Iran $300 billion that would be distributed to that country through an investment fund, and end economic sanctions, and the unfreezing of Iranian assets. Plus, there will be waivers that allow Iran to sell oil on the global market.”
Many of these concessions did not even exist before Trump and Israel chose to attack.
This leads to headlines, that Murray characterized as “absolutely scathing.”
The conservative Drudge Report barked up a distillation of several rotten headlines, including “Iran declares total victory will control Hormuz,” as well as a Wall Street Journal headline declaring “America in retreat.”
The right-wing and heavily influential Financial Times wrote “Humiliation’: Donald trump battles claims his Iran deal is worse than Obama’s” — while the cover of Rupert Murdoch’s own New York Post declared: “Lovebomb,” complete with an image of people burning an American flag.
