This line of thinking would make a lot more sense if there wasn’t a long, storied history of Trump completely ignoring sycophants when they’re not immediately useful to him. You’d expect someone like Carney to know better. It’s enough to make a person physically cringe.

I’ll be honest, after we pivoted to Afghanistan from Iraq, I assumed I’d never see American boots in Iran. It is inspiring to know that someone has the hubris to go where no one before him dared.

Where is “nothing is real, but good luck making use of that information”?
