Donald Trump’s Iran problem is not going away and maybe worsening, and he can thank the only three people who seem to have his ear, according to the panel on MS NOW’s “Morning Joe.”With the Strait of Hormuz still caught up in a stranglehold as a result of the president’s unprovoked war on the Middle Eastern nation, Trump has been fuming at the current state of affairs that is costing him MAGA support and has an increasing number of GOP lawmakers looking for a way to rein him in.According to co-host Joe Scarborough, the president’s refusal to listen to Pentagon experts has cost him dearly.“You know, not to labor a point here, but everybody knew from 1979 that if you went into Iran, the strait was a problem,” the former GOP lawmaker began.He continued, “And then you have the United States stumbling into Iran instead of listening to some of the smartest people, not only around now, but also throughout history on military strategy. He listened only to Pete Hegseth, Benjamin Netanyahu and Lindsey Graham –– I mean, really, that's a triumvirate.”“That's really why we're here,” he elaborated. “As far as the people in his ear saying this is something that needs to be done. And we have reports that there were many close to him, many military leaders saying, ‘Don't listen to these guys. Don't believe these guys. They're making this sound easier than it actually is.’ And yet here we are.""I mean, we're right now, we we are in a bit of a quagmire as it pertains to the strait, because the Iranians know they can play hardball," he added. Co-host Jonathan Lemire offered, “Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, outlined this could happen. But no, no advocacy was made and that's not necessarily his job. But no one else there did either. And, you know, [Vice President JD] Vance said that he had some reservations, but also made clear, 'Hey, boss, it's your decision. We'll just do it.' And this was a rushed war and it was shortsighted. They thought it was going to be over in days, a couple of weeks at most. And now it is no doubt a bit of a quagmire.” - YouTube youtu.be
