And I dont know why everybody is not talking about that...

ALL media talking heads, scratching their heads "why did he change his mind?"

FFS he was TOLD not to by his boss who OWNS him!

Russia's Putin says a war between the U.S. and Iran 'would be a catastrophe'
An Iran-U.S. war would "lead to an increase of violence, and potential increase in refugees from the region,” Putin said, adding it could have "sad consequences" for those who "attempt it."

running on Raw Story that late afternoon our time. So in order to make cover,the media choice was Sucker Carlson in order to give Ponzi Don cover and divert attention.

My first guess was a Vlad Phone call to his Agent. Either scenario would have been the death knell of Ponzi Don's Campaign. Wow,screwed himself both ways.

He had a bit of influence over Trump in this decision. Probably. Maybe.
