For 47 years we've had every president, seven I think talk about we're going to contain Iran. Matter of fact, Hillary Clinton said when she became president she was going to bomb them. People seem to forget that This is the first president that has said, listen, we're not going to let you get a nuclear weapon. We, we decimated your program. You came right back and tried to rebuild it within days. That tells you we had a problem. We're not going to do this forever. (08:54–08:59)
