Megyn Kelly: "The president's messaging on Iran has been particularly erratic over the past week"

From the April 6, 2026, edition of SiriusXM's The Megyn Kelly Show 

MEGYN KELLY (HOST): The president's messaging on Iran has been particularly erratic over the past week, and I don't know whether this is all strategy. Trump likes to keep the enemy guessing, whether the enemy is the actual enemy — like we're seeing with Iran in a war — or just people he's negotiating against, like China in a tariff battle. So he often has erratic messaging that to us looks kind of crazy, but to him is just a tactic that we will later understand or we won't, but he thinks will give him a leg up. So I don't know what's happening here.
