Victoria Coates: "President Trump has given every opportunity for the regime in Iran to come to the table and make a reasonable deal... We were having the same conversation over the course of the last four weeks that we were having in the lead up to the 12-day war. All the critics were predicting the president wouldn’t act, he was being tricked by the Iranians—absolutely not. He was getting everything in place that he needed to execute this extraordinary strike, and the Iranians now know that they're defenseless."
