Nicolle Wallace covers how the latest attack within Iran is yet another betrayal of the MAGA base, who wants America to be put first. Back before the 2024 election, Stephen Miller, now Homeland Security Advisor to Trump, called Kamala Harris’ campaign “war-mongering neocons [who] love sending your kids to die for wars they would never fight themselves.” Fast forward to 2026 under a second Trump presidency, the United States has upended Venezuela’s regime, conducted air strikes in the Caribbean, and struck Iran, killing its Supreme Leader, all of which puts the U.S. military at risk.
Later, Marc Elias and Tim Miller discuss Trump’s unproven claims of Iran interfering in the 2020 election, leading to his loss to Joe Biden, and how Trump might use his attack on Iran to justify a power grab over voting in the 2026 midterms.
