Published | Video Starts at 24:11

We're in the Middle east and I think the president should be given latitude. I mean, Iran is a malignant regime. President Obama failed by faking, you know, success by passing the jcpoa. I've said Repeatedly. JCPOA is not the paper it's written on. Future presidents can rescind it. So willing to give the President latitude. What's concerning me now is we're coming up on the 45 day mark. 60 days is important with respect to the War Powers Resolution. (24:11–24:18)
