Tim Pool on war with Iran: “I did not vote for this. I am not happy with it. It does not seem to be going well, and gas near me, and we're in the middle of nowhere, is 4 bucks. Diesel's at 6. This is bad, bad, bad.”

TIM POOL (HOST): So let me just say it like this. I voted for Donald Trump on policy grounds. That's it. The left have bad policies. Trump's policies are slightly better. Trump's not perfect. I would not vote for a war in Iran. If you tell me that a president's going to be starting, you know, like, a war in the Middle East, I'd be like, uh-huh. And the plan for a war in Iran has been around forever. So, if you're shocked now that Trump is doing something that everybody expected to happen at some point or another, I got a bridge to sell you. I'm not excusing it. Right? I did not vote for this. I am not happy with it. It does not seem to be going well, and gas near me, and we're in the middle of nowhere, is 4 bucks. Diesel's at 6. This is bad, bad, bad. OK.
But I'm not going to come out here and scream — he's a mad king man. And advocate — or at least black pill, which would only make things worse for the United States. Removing Trump now, I — it's completely ridiculous. That being said, when Candace points out that he's got people around him that have have him convinced he is a messiah — well, there was this story where — let me pull it up. White House deletes video where Trump was — here we go, from Easter event. Let me see this. Trump was compared to Jesus. White House deletes video footage from Easter event where Trump was compared to Jesus. Yeah. That, you shouldn't do. I just — you — just no.
