Glenn brings back Andrew Day, senior editor at The American Conservative, to make sense of the war-skeptical right's position on the Iran War. With seventeen Americans already killed and peace talks stalled, Day argues Trump's decision to go to war is flatly incompatible with America First principles — delivering no clear national benefit while disrupting supply chains and rattling markets. Day's sharpest claim: Israel's interests drove the U.S. into this conflict, and with American opinion toward Israel souring even among Republicans, continuing to act in lockstep with Tel Aviv could prove fatal to the MAGA coalition by 2028. Another ill-advised Middle East war, another political casualty in the making.
