Joe Scarborough revealed on Morning Joe that he has spoken with President Trump “probably half a dozen times since he was back in the White House.”
His 20-minute call yesterday was mostly “filled with the president recounting the U.S. military’s flawless execution of the operation.”
Then Trump added: “Joe, the difference between Iraq and this is that Bush didn’t keep the oil. We’re going to keep the oil.”
