Iran Has No Cards Left

Sean continues analyzing the Iran negotiations, arguing that President Trump’s military and economic pressure has left Tehran with very little leverage. He plays Vice President J.D. Vance describing progress on keeping the Strait of Hormuz open, coordinating demining, and setting up technical negotiations with Iran, Qatar, and Pakistan. Lindsey Graham adds that if diplomacy fails, Trump may take control of the Strait of Hormuz and directly hit Iran if its proxies attack Israel. Lisa Daftari and James Robbins join to debate whether the Iranian regime can ever be trusted, whether Trump should keep sanctions pressure on, and whether Iran’s ideology makes real normalization impossible. Hannity argues that Trump’s stated goals were never full regime change, but preventing a nuclear-armed Iran, keeping oil flowing, and preserving military options if diplomacy fails.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
