In an interview with The Grand Standoff: Iran and the World, Peter Kuznik, director of the Institute for Nuclear Studies at American University, criticized US President Donald Trump's selection of senior officials, and asked how he could appoint Stephen Miller as chief of staff and "this clown from martial arts" as press secretary. Kuznik said that Trump does not operate according to the usual standards of rational thinking, describing him as a "bullet" who wants to exert power and surround himself with people who reinforce his image as a tough leader capable of anything. He added that Trump and Netanyahu suffered major obstacles in the last election and are now in desperate positions, while the situations in "Israel" and the US remain chaotic and unstable.
