Paul Rieckhoff Calls J.D. Vance’s ‘X’ Post as ‘Political Word Salad’
EXCERPT:
RIECKHOFF: "That sounds like political word salad. I mean, that doesn‘t sound like anything. I don‘t think it‘s going to make anybody feel better. Maybe it‘ll, you know, deepen his loyalty to Trump somehow, but that‘s not going to help this situation. And Trump‘s going to have to make strategic decisions about what he does when he is. I think the Iranians (sic) do want our firepower. I think they do want our air assets. They do want our bombs. And if they can get that without the baggage and chaos of Trump, where he‘s talking junk on X, when really what we need to be doing is, you know, talking softly and carry a big stick, that generally works better on the world stage in situations like this. I think Netanyahu is trying to have a little bit of both to achieve his objectives, while Israel and Tel Aviv continue to get hit with missiles on a daily basis."
