Democrat presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren has weighed in on the killing of Iran’s Quds leader Qassem Soleimani, and it’s not an unpredictable response. Warren admitted that Soleimani was a “murderer,” however, it was followed by the obligatory “BUT…”:
Soleimani was a murderer, responsible for the deaths of thousands, including hundreds of Americans. But this reckless move escalates the situation with Iran and increases the likelihood of more deaths and new Middle East conflict. Our priority must be to avoid another costly war.

That tweet caused Kimberly Guilfoyle to drop a huge reality check on the Massachusetts senator, along with a certain former president:
This is why you’ll never be President. Wars aren’t avoided by hoping a growing threat goes away. It also isn’t avoided by rhetorical red lines & pallets of cash—Obama proved that.
Strong, decisive leadership tells Iran that the US will not be terrorized. Peace through strength! https://t.co/tnrc0AeJpj
