"The White House" just tweeted and quickly deleted part of a 45 interview.

Chuck Todd asked about his reversing his decision about launching a strike at Iran. He replied in an amount of detail that made me queasy-they were ready to go, they could reach the target in a half hour, they informed him 150 people would be killed, etc.

I must not have been the only one who thought “That is WAY too much disclosure” because it was deleted immediately.

I swear I have seen smarter Risk players. 🤬

1. Well, the only thing I can say about that is

Don't try to hold Europe early on. It will never work.

Hole up in Australia, load up Siam, and then bust out in Asia.

2. None of GOP hawks ever played Risk

I have always thought that many politicians and pundits should have played Risk when growing up or even as adults. Risk players can be smart and often learn a lot.

I learned that superior number of armies and adult strategies were no match for an eight year old with a knack for rolling multiple 6s. Also, don't try to occupy the Middle East.

3. LOL! I hear ya. Sometimes I think they're rolling dice in DC.
