The Democrats' early confrontation with Trump regarding Iran The news website Politico reported that the Democratic representatives plan to confront Trump even before the new Congress is formed to stop the war against Iran, and the budget committee is their first target to pressure Trump in this regard. According to this report, the Democrats, from the moderate figures to the progressive faction, emphasized the need to end the Iran war in their election campaigns, and now some of them believe that any agreement to secure the government's budget at the end of the year should include a ban on allocating federal financial resources to this war.
