"When you're thinking about a major decision like this, the way the President makes these decisions is he talks to a lot of people. Obviously, we're thinking of various ins and outs, various options—what this looks like, how to accomplish our goals, what our goals should be. And I think it's important for the President of the United States to be able to have that conversation with his team without his team running their mouths to the American media."
"I hate to disappoint you, but I'm not gonna show up here and in front of God and everybody else tell you exactly what I said in that classified room. Partially because I don't wanna go to prison, and partially because I think it's important for the president of the United States to be able to talk to his advisors without those advisors running their mouth to the American media."
Vice President JD Vance was directly questioned about reported philosophical differences with President Trump regarding U.S.-Israeli military operations against Iran in Operation Epic Fury. Vance refused to disclose details of private conversations, citing the need to maintain confidentiality within the national security team. He emphasized that the President benefits from candid discussions with advisors without information being leaked to media. Vance stated that trust and free exchange of ideas among the national security team are essential, and public disclosure of classified discussions could compromise this dynamic and violate security protocols.
