The Trump Derangement Syndrome has reached dangerous new heights as Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) shamelessly accused President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth of committing "war crimes" during recent military operations against Iran.
Speaking on CNN's "The Arena" Monday, Van Hollen claimed that bombing operations that allegedly resulted in civilian casualties could constitute war crimes - a despicable political attack that undermines America's national security during active military operations.
This is the same crowd that stayed silent when Obama drone-bombed wedding parties and Biden botched the Afghanistan withdrawal, getting 13 American servicemembers killed. But now they want to cry "war crimes" when Trump actually defends America's interests?
Democrats Put Politics Over Patriotism
Van Hollen's inflammatory rhetoric isn't just wrong - it's dangerous. By parroting Iranian propaganda and questioning legitimate military operations, he's giving aid and comfort to America's enemies while our troops are in harm's way.
The Trump-Hegseth team is doing exactly what they promised: putting America first and showing our enemies we won't tolerate their aggression. After four years of Biden's weakness emboldened Iran and its terrorist proxies, it's about time we had leaders willing to project real strength.
"The radical Democrats would rather attack our own President than defend American lives," one military analyst told us. "This is exactly the kind of deep state resistance Trump warned us about."
Where was Van Hollen's outrage when Iran-backed terrorists were killing American soldiers? Where were his "war crimes" accusations when Iranian proxies attacked our bases and ships? The silence was deafening.
America First Foreign Policy Under Attack
This coordinated attack on Trump's Iran policy isn't happening in a vacuum. The same establishment that gave us endless wars in Iraq and Afghanistan - while enriching defense contractors and foreign interests - can't stand that Trump actually fights to win and comes home.
Patriots need to see this for what it is: another desperate attempt by the swamp to handcuff America's real Commander-in-Chief. Van Hollen and his Democrat colleagues would rather see Americans die than let Trump succeed where they failed.
The question every American should be asking: whose side are these Democrats really on?
