Ep. 2425 - Let Trump COOK

What was said

"When the fake news says the Iranian enemy is doing well militarily against us, it's virtual treason in that it is such a false and even preposterous statement. They are aiding and abetting the enemy. All it does is give Iran false hope when none should exist. These are American cowards rooting against our country."

Ben Shapiro endorsed President Trump's statement accusing Western media of committing 'virtual treason' by sympathizing with Iran during ongoing military conflict. Trump claimed the media gives Iran false hope despite Iran having lost its entire Navy and Air Force. Shapiro agreed, arguing left-wing media wants America to lose because they oppose Trump.
