Himes on Trump’s Iran Tweet: ‘Overstatement to Say We’re at the Brink of War’

‘I think that is probably not true’

EXCERPT:

HIMES: "Yeah, it's a good question. It was 11:30 last night, so I was not waking up but trying to sleep after seeing that tweet. Look, I think it's an overstatement to say that we're at the brink of war. I think that is probably not true. What concerns me more is that if you look back at a bunch of President Trump's tweets before he was president, he criticized several times Barack Obama and said, 'You just wait, he's going to start a war with Iran if he feels like he's on the political ropes.' So that's in his head. That's what worries me."
