🔶 Administration spokesman George Bush to Vance: The reason for the defeat of the Republicans was not the Iran war, but the ceasefire.
Ari Fleischer, the White House spokesman during the presidency of George Bush, rejected the analysis of Jeddy Vance, the vice president of the United States, regarding the reason for the defeat of the Republicans in the midterm elections in the United States.
After the heavy defeat of the Republicans in the American elections, Vance saw the Iran war as the reason for this defeat.
Fleischer posted a message directly to Vance on the X social network: "Mr. Vice President, please allow me to offer a different perspective. The problem was not the Iran war, but the ceasefire. When you start a war, you have to win it and end it; Otherwise, you don't have to start it at all." Ari Fleischer, who was the White House spokesman from January 2001 to July 2003 and was responsible for public information during the assassination attacks on September 11, 2001 and the beginning of the Iraq War, emphasized in another part of his message that "this war should have ended six months ago, while the Strait of Hormuz continued completely, the second and third oil flows" The leadership of the Iranian government should have been destroyed, and the US should have removed the forces The pro-Westerners that they can take power, he will support it."
