Senator Booker: Iran Conflict Is the Greatest ‘Presidential Blunder of Our Time’
Breitbart ^ | 29 Mar 2026 | Pam Key

Posted on 03/30/2026 5:07:24 AM PDT by dennisw

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) said the military conflict in Iran will be looked at as one of the greatest “presidential blunders of our time.”

Host Kristen Welker said, “The U.S. has reportedly sent Iran a 15-point plan addressing its ballistic and nuclear weapons program, and some analysts have already drawn some comparisons to the talks under the Obama administration. The deal that was struck during the Obama era. Do you support the Trump administration’s efforts to try to negotiate a deal with Iran to bring this war to an end?”

Booker said, “I don’t support this administration, period. They’ve gotten us into what will be looked at as one of the greatest blunders, presidential blunders of our time. Remember, this president had stated objectives, none of which he is achieving right now, from the nuclear program all the way to, frankly, regime change.

The regime is more extreme. They’ve shown an asymmetric ability to choke off the Straits of Hormuz has caused a global oil shock. And for Americans at home, our costs continue to rise. This is after the president has cut people’s health care and nutrition programs. And now, with over $25 billion to that has been spent on the war. Over 300 people injured, 13 Americans who’ve lost their lives. This president is pushing us further and further into a conflict, with no foreseeable off-ramp and thousands more troops moving into that region.

And he still has not come to Congress for any kind of authorization for what is clearly not just a war, but the biggest military engagement we’ve had since the war in Afghanistan. This president is off the chain, and we are in a global crisis of his causing.”

And, among the greatest political blunders of all time is the election of Corey Booker to Federal office.

If Iran had attacked the U.S.

Booker: “Why didn’t Trump do something to prevent the attack.”

Biden leaving $8billion in military assets in Afghanistan would secure that position in my mind.

Unlike enabling millions of 3rd worlders to invade our country or mandating Covid injections or organizing riots supporting a career criminal degenerate who ODed while resisting arrest.

The biggest presidential blunder of all time regarding Iran was Carter’s April 1980 “Operation Eagle Claw” which was an attempt to rescue the 53 American hostages from the US Embassy in Tehran.

The 2nd biggest presidential blunder of all time regarding Iran was in January 2016 when Obama sent $400 million in cash to Iran. Subsequent payments brought the total to $1.7 billion.

There's a handful of characters on this forum who sound exactly like him.

Senator Booker is a panty-wipe. He has no intelligence or historical knowledge to make such a statement or to have anyone listen to him. Chastity Bono has as much gravitas on these sort of subjects.

Exactly, unknown distance between imminent threat and actual attack
One of the biggest blunders(criminal) is allowing Iran to get to this point.

Cory Booker has presidential ass-perations and uses the grandstanding tactic for publicity. He does not know that every time he pops up to make a TDS statement, it reinforces peoples’ thinking that he is one big turd on the political landscape. He needs the pooper scooper clowns for his political parade.
