Nick Fuentes says Trump’s “spin” on war with Iran is “childish” and "grating”
Fuentes: “It's a complete unraveling, and it's clear what happened there. I think, look, JD Vance and Marco Rubio, they want to run for president in '28, so they know that their butt is on the line here.”

ALEX JONES (HOST): Well, since the eighties, Iran has not launched an attack first. Every attack has been a response, a retaliatory attack. I mean, that is literally pulled out of Trump's butt, Nick.
NICK FUENTES (GUEST): It is. And that's exactly what happened last year too. Israel came in and Trump said, oh, we knew they were doing it. They told and the whole negotiations were a ruse. It's almost just childish to see Trump in the White House spin: ‘Well, actually, I forced Israel to do it.'
This is when Trump just becomes grating. You know, all those things we thought were charming ten years ago or endearing or funny, now it's just grating and insufferable. He's obviously full of it. That — there's nothing true about that at all.
This idea that, like you say, that Iran was about to attack us, really? We have two carriers there. We got a dozen warships, 50,000 soldiers, half of our air force, and Iran was going to start the war against us? Does that even make any sense? That is completely made up.
JONES: And then Rubio says Israel launched an attack so we had to because they were going to attack us. Now Trump goes, No. They were going to attack us with no information. I mean, I'm sorry, folks. I want to support Trump. I support the, killing the [inaudible], and that's why I hate this, because he's done a lot of good. We're watching Trump self-immolate on live television.
FUENTES: It is. It's a complete unraveling, and it's clear what happened there. I think, look, JD Vance and Marco Rubio, they want to run for president in '28, so they know that their butt is on the line here. If this Iran war doesn't go well, there go their presidential ambitions. And so I think that when Rubio comes out and says, well, Israel made us do it, obviously, this is like a real time narrative construction so that when, in '28, he's questioned about it on the debate stage, if this becomes a debacle, this is hedging.
He can say, well, we didn't have any options. We have the choice: Either we go in with Israel at the beginning or Americans die. Well, I chose to — you know, that's going to be the argument. That's going to be the campaign speech.
