Dem Rep. Dean on Downed Jet: Trump's Rhetoric Seemed Like It Would 'Incite Such an Attack'


On Friday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “The Weekend,” Rep. Madeleine Dean (D-PA) commented on an F-15 being shot down over Iran by saying that the way President Donald Trump “bloviated and bragged about the destruction of Iran’s ability to compete in this war…seemed like he was just going to incite such an attack on our military.” I depend upon and count on the excellence of our military, but I decry what the President did this week in his speech before the nation, in the way he bloviated and bragged about the destruction of Iran’s ability to compete in this war. So, I pray for the safe return of the other pilot of the F-15, and I pray for a swift end to this war that is a war of the president’s making.”
