Скачать или смотреть DEBATE: Are Trump's Strikes America First Or Israel First? | Counterpoints

America first or Israel first? President Donald Trump’s decision to launch Operation Epic Fury against the Iranian leadership has fractured the American political landscape, putting the GOP’s slim House and Senate majorities at risk ahead of the 2026 midterms.


On this episode of Counterpoints, we examine whether the strikes have genuine public support or if they represent a betrayal of the non-interventionist “America First” doctrine.


We also break down the growing rift within the MAGA base and analyze whether this military escalation will consolidate Trump’s political power or trigger a deeper partisan fracture in US politics.
