Trump's Expletive-Laden Threat to Iran; U.S. Forces Rescue Downed Airman

Over the weekend, Donald Trump took to Truth Social with an expletive-laden post about the conflict in Iran, threatening to strike the country's bridge and energy infrastructure if a deal wasn't reached soon. Iran dismissed the latest threat as "helpless, nervous and stupid". So is he taking the right approach to trying to end the conflict? Rick Gates - former deputy campaign manager for Donald Trump - joins Alex Phillips to discuss the post and why the US President still has his support over the conflict and what Trump has got right with his strategy. And over the weekend, US forces rescued an airman who went missing after his jet was shot down over Iran. Defence analyst Simon Diggins speaks with Mark Dolan to discuss the significance of this rescue mission and how it will help with US morale. Hosted on Acast.
