President Trump is facing both praise and criticism for recent military strikes against Iran. On one hand, UN Chief Antonio Guterres has praised Trump's role in brokering a ceasefire between Iran and Israel just days after condemning the US strikes. Pakistan has even nominated Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts.
However, the strikes have also sparked divisions among Democrats, with some expressing support for the actions while others are calling for restraint. CNN analyst Harry Enten has pointed out that Trump's base is largely in favor of the strikes, as they see it as a demonstration of his strength and resolve.
On the other hand, Fox News host Pete Hegseth broke down in tears while defending Trump against accusations that he purposefully targeted civilians in the strikes. He accused reporters of cheering against the President during a time of crisis.
Despite the controversy, Trump remains steadfast in his defense of the strikes, citing national security concerns and the need to hold Iran accountable for their actions. As the debate rages on, the world watches to see what the future holds for US-Iran relations.
