Bill Maher interroge Slotkin sur l'opposition des démocrates aux frappes contre l'Iran

Dans le dernier épisode de son émission Real Time sur HBO, l'animateur Bill Maher a interrogé la sénatrice démocrate du Michigan Elissa Slotkin sur l'opposition généralisée de son parti aux actions militaires du président Donald Trump contre l'Iran. Maher a souligné que seul le sénateur de Pennsylvanie John Fetterman semblait diverger de la ligne démocrate concernant l'opération Epic Fury. Slotkin a reconnu les succès obtenus dans l'affaiblissement des capacités de l'Iran tout en exprimant des réserves sur la direction prise par le conflit.

Bill Maher recevait vendredi la sénatrice Elissa Slotkin, démocrate du Michigan et ancienne membre de la CIA, dans son émission Real Time. Il l'a interrogée sur les raisons pour lesquelles la plupart des démocrates étaient parvenus à ce qu'il a qualifié de consensus « miraculeux » contre l'opération Epic Fury menée par Trump et ciblant le régime iranien. « Il y a un homme, John Fetterman, à qui je peux penser et qui a divergé de la ligne du Parti démocrate », a déclaré Maher. « Est-ce vraiment le cas ? Vraiment, il n'y a qu'une seule personne dans tout le parti qui pense différemment ? Vous êtes tous arrivés miraculeusement à la même conclusion concernant l'Iran ? »
