Published | Video Starts at 01:51

I mean they punt, they punt, they punt, they wait, they wait and hopefully we get tired. I just don't see Trump doing that. This guy knows that We cannot allow [Iran] to have a nuclear weapon. So you know, if it takes more military strikes, I think he's going to do, he's going to make sure they have no nuclear capability. Well, so you wonder then what we're waiting for. (01:51–01:57)
