GRAPEVINE, TEXAS — Joseph Bolick feels betrayed by President Donald Trump. And it’s because of the war in Iran.

The 30-year-old Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran voted for Trump in 2024. But at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference gathering this week he sported a hat emblazoned with “America First” — a slogan Trump championed during his campaign, along with the promise not to start new wars in foreign countries.

“He’s lied about everything,” said Bolick. “If you go into a war where there’s no end game, how is it going to end? There’s no clear objective.”

    For many, they believed him when he said those were lies and political attacks.

    Basically everything related to the Iran War however is easily demonstrably false. And the ramifications quick and obvious to the average person. It’s one of the reasons the admin is working so quickly to prevent news reporting they haven’t approved about it.
