It's biblical': Maga anxiety over Iran war on display at CPAC as Trump skips event
"Erik Prince, the former CEO of the Blackwater mercenary group, warned that if Trump orders an incursion into Iran, the public will witness 'imagery of burning American warships in the next couple of weeks.' He expressed concern that people are not prepared for such outcomes."
"Jason Redman, a former Navy Seal, urged the audience to recognize the importance of ongoing military engagement, stating, 'The American people have to understand we can't stop now that we've started. I have my first grandchild coming. I don't want my grandchild to have to fight Iran in 20 years.'"
"Ric Grenell, a veteran Trump administration diplomat, refrained from discussing potential invasions but praised Trump's wisdom in entering the war, suggesting that in a few months, people will look back and be grateful for the decisions made."
The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) near Dallas saw a notable absence of Donald Trump, who was preoccupied with the war in Iran. This year, the event lacked the usual optimism, as attendees, including prominent Maga figures, debated the movement's direction. Concerns were raised about Trump's potential military actions in Iran, with Erik Prince warning of dire consequences. Former Navy Seal Jason Redman emphasized the need for continued commitment to military efforts, while Ric Grenell praised Trump's decision-making regarding the conflict.
