Consequences of Trump's Iran attack surge into spotlight - Brian Tyler Cohen

[TexasTowelie]

today we're going to talk about our new
Middle Eastern war and what it means for
Americans moving forward and I've got
two interviews from this week i speak
with Senator Tina Smith about her
confrontation with Republican Senator
Mike Lee after he mocked Democrats who'd
been assassinated and Democratic nominee
for New Jersey Governor Mikey Cheryl
about what she'll do if and when Trump
targets her blue state i'm Brian Tyler
Cohen and you're watching No Lie
[Music]
the United States it seems is now at war
as Donald Trump announced a US attack on
three nuclear sites in Iran which means
that one of two things happens now one
Iran takes these attacks lying down
doesn't retaliate and we carry on in a
period of peace and prosperity or Iran
does seek retaliation and our military
bases overseas become immediate targets
uh they block our ability to be able to
get oil from the Middle East and oil
prices surge in the United States
there's a whole uh a whole menu of
options that they could take in terms of
retaliation we might also see Iran's
allies China and Russia seek to get
involved so it's obviously anybody's
guess what happens next but one thing is
abundantly clear donald Trump sold his
supporters a bill of goods by pretending
that he was the anti-war candidate on
the ballot here is just a small sampling
of those promises we're rebuilding our
military stronger than ever before and
we are not going to deplete it again on
stupid senseless endless wars world War
II has never been closer than it is
right now we need to clean house of all
of the war mongers and America last
globalists in the deep state i am the
president who delivers peace i was the
first president in decades who didn't
start a war but I stand here today and
I'm the only candidate who can make this
promise i will prevent and very easily
World War III very easily
these globalists want to squander all of
America's strength blood and treasure
chasing monsters and phantoms overseas
in addition there must also be a
complete commitment to dismantling the
entire globalist neocon establishment
that is perpetually dragging us into
endless wars pretending to fight for
freedom and democracy abroad and of
course we are now fewer than six months
into Trump's presidency and he attacks
Iran if Trump had a mandate when he came
into office it was peace the official
GOP Twitter account literally dubbed
Trump advance the quote pro peace ticket
here's RFK Jr echoing that claim if you
want to avoid nuclear war I strongly
urge you to vote for Donald Trump in
fact I would go so far as to say that a
vote for Kla Harris is a vote for
nuclear war here's Tulsi Gabbard also
echoing that sentiment here is the
choice that we have
a vote for Kla Harris is a vote for Dick
Cheney and it's a vote for war more war
likely World War II and nuclear war
[Applause]
a vote for Donald Trump is a vote for a
man who wants to end wars not start them
and I mean it goes on and on again a
mandate for peace that has been
obliterated unless of course you're of
the mind that Iran's just going to
dutifully accept the attack and refuse
to retaliate which flies in the face of
common sense and um also this statement
that was put out on Iranian state TV
saying quote "Every American citizen or
military in the region is now a target."
The same people who spent the last
decade wailing about Benghazi just put
every single American in the Middle East
at risk of course if and when that
attack comes something tells me that
Republicans in Congress and the Senate
aren't going to hold a Hillary Clinton
style hearing because it's fine when
Trump does it but this is what Trump
does and what Republicans empower him to
get away with he runs as the peace
candidate and immediately plunges us
into war just like he vowed to lower
costs and instead sent them surging
thanks to his trade war vowed to protect
earned benefits and immediately moved to
cut them vowed law and order and
instantly pardon 1,500 January 6th
insurrectionists and look I'm not here
to say I told you so because while that
might feel good it doesn't get us
anywhere so my message to everybody out
there who bought the bill of goods that
Trump sold them is that this is a
Republican party that has nothing but
contempt for you your vote is not a
contract based on campaign promises but
rather a vehicle for Republicans to
consolidate power for themselves this is
what happens when you entrust the GOP
with majorities do not make the same
mistake again.
