'Trump was warned': Reports contradict Trump's claims of surprise by challenges in Iran - The Briefing w/Jen Psaki MS NOW



Despite Donald Trump expressing shock and surprise at how Iran has responded to being attacked by the United States and Israel, Jen Psaki shares reporting that Trump was warned about everything from attacks on regional U.S. allies to the closing of the Strait of Hormuz, and Trump's struggle with these challenges is due to a lack of preparation, not a lack of prediction. - Aired on 03/27/2026.

Quite a disadvantage for a warmonger, but that's the way he is, we know he didn't pay attention in school.
