Trump's Reflecting Pool Explains Everything

DEFIANCE Daily: Dispatches for the Defiant

Trump’s Reflecting Pool and Iran Deal are one in the same.

It may also be the story of Trump’s Iran deal.

Congressman Bill Keating joins us to discuss how months of threats, military action, and diplomatic chaos have left the administration remarkably close to the same realities Trump spent years attacking.
