Trump vs. Netanyahu? Admiral Stavridis Explains the Growing Rift

Former NATO Supreme Allied Commander Admiral James Stavridis joins Michael to break down the increasingly complicated dynamics between Israel, Iran, Hezbollah, and the Trump administration. Are President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu pursuing different goals? Can a U.S.-Iran deal still happen? And what role does Hezbollah play in the growing tensions across the region? Then, Michael talks with listeners on whether the U.S. and Israel are drifting apart, the challenges of Middle East diplomacy, and a provocative question from listeners: who’s the tougher partner—Trump or Netanyahu?
