Fox News Host Laura Ingraham Questions If Trump Grasped ‘Complexity’ Of Iran War

The popular Fox News host used her opening monologue on The Ingraham Angle on Monday to talk about the utter mess that’s unfolded since the US and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran on February 28 — and questioned whether President Donald Trump was fully aware of the consequences of this decision.

“Now, knowing what little time we have and how quickly this can spiral out of control, we still have a lot of questions,” Ingraham said. “For instance, was the president fully briefed about the risks of all of this from the beginning? And was he then able to take it all in and understand the complexity of this? How complex it could actually get, and further possibilities of casualties or other damage –– the difficulty of dealing with these people? Or was he told this would be relatively quick, in and out?”

Ingraham’s opening monologue began with her mentioning that Trump’s self-created April 6 deadline to “strike a deal” with Iran is looming, and how it could act as “a defining moment for this conflict and perhaps for his presidency.”

Ingraham questioned if that even matters.

“But how much power does Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf actually have?” Ingraham wondered. “The New York Times is reporting that the regime is having some trouble coordinating after so many people were killed. They’re scared to meet in person — these individuals — or to have their calls apparently hacked. With different leaders in place, Iranian negotiators may have little knowledge about what their government is willing to concede. Or even whom precisely to ask. So if we cannot come to some type of peace deal with people who can’t be trusted, then what?”

Ingraham apparently already had the answer.
