A couple of reports recently have sought to drive a wedge between President Trump and Vice President Vance regarding the commander-in-chief’s decision to go to war with Iran to end, once and for all, the Islamic republic’s pursuit of a nuclear weapon. It’s the same pledge presidents dating back to Bill Clinton have made, but Trump is the only one who made good on it.
But Vance said in an interview Monday that extended negotiations with Iranian officials helped solidify his support for Trump’s approach to the initiative known as Operation Epic Fury.
Vance said that after approximately 21 hours of talks, he concluded the administration’s strategy was appropriate. He acknowledged that Iranian negotiators can be difficult counterparts but emphasized that, in his view, Iran should not be permitted to obtain a nuclear weapon, particularly given its efforts to use geopolitical leverage in negotiations.
? NOW: VP JD Vance gives the PERFECT answer when asked, "were you skeptical of Trump's Iran war?"
"I give advice to the President of the United States that's going to be PRIVATE because the President should rely on his senior advisors without them running to the media."

The perfect answer:
“Well, Brett, you know, I give my advice to the President of the United States, and we all do, and I expect that when I give advice to the President of the United States, that it’s going to be private, because the president should rely on his senior advisors without them running to the media.
“What I will say, is that I 100 percent agree with the President on the fact that it ran and can’t have a nuclear weapon.”
“I’ve seen that just in the negotiation that we’ve had over the last couple of days, that these are tough negotiators but they’re fundamentally the kinds of people where them having a nuclear weapon would impose terrible costs on the entire world.”
“If they’re willing to engage in economic terrorism on the entire world, what would it mean? What leverage would they have if they had a nuclear bomb in Tehran?”
“That’s NOT an outcome that is acceptable to us or really should be acceptable to anybody.”
“So I 100 percent support the President’s goals here to keep nuclear weapons, to keep the worst weapons of war out of the hands of the Iranians.”
Sounds like whatever was said between Vance and the president behind closed doors is a moot point now, and that’s not going to sit well with the Democrat Media Complex that works daily to bring this administration down.
What a pathetic way to make a living.
