Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., clashed with MS NOW host Katy Tur on Tuesday over the war in Iran<\/a>, as the lawmaker accused her of pushing leftist talking points.<\/p>\n

Tur asked Lawler about whether the Trump administration had a real strategy for the war, suggesting the president was “more desperate” than Iran. The GOP lawmaker brought up former President Barack Obama<\/a> and the conflict in Libya.<\/p>\n

“We don\u2019t need to go back to Barack Obama. We can stick\u2013 no, let\u2019s stick with President Trump. No, we don\u2019t,” Tur said. “I want to live in the moment and I don\u2019t want to do a 10-minute detour for President Obama.”<\/p>\n

Lawler said, “Excuse me. It\u2019s not a detour. It\u2019s not a detour. It\u2019s a relevant fact, OK? We were in a seven-month war in Libya that resulted in a civil war. Chuck Schumer<\/a> and Nancy Pelosi fully endorsed it, fully embraced it, said everything was great, and the president was well within his authority.”<\/p>\n

Tur asked how the example justified the current war in Iran. She said, “I\u2019m talking about this president who promised no foreign wars.”<\/p>\n

“I know you just want to spew out the talking points for the left here, but the fact is this: this was a just war that the president engaged in to stop this regime from possessing a nuclear weapon<\/a>, and ultimately, you can say that over the past eight weeks \u2014 in your opinion, seemingly \u2014 nothing has been done, but the fact is their leadership is gone, the Ayatollah is dead, the clerics are dead, the leadership of the IRGC is dead,” Lawler responded.<\/p>\n

He continued, “The remnants are what we are dealing with right now. And yes, if you think they\u2019re using the Strait of Hormuz<\/a> as leverage is a problem, what do you think it would have been if they actually had a nuclear weapon? What do you think they would have done using a nuclear weapon to extort the rest of the world?”<\/p>\n

Lawler argued that Iran was actually engaged in negotiations about their enriched uranium and financing<\/a> of terrorism.<\/p>\n

“All the members of the media who have said this is a problem, but because something was actually done now say, I can\u2019t believe we did something, give me a break. The fact is that they needed to be dealt with, and somebody actually took action to go after a regime that has acted<\/a> belligerently for 47 years, killing thousands of Americans,” he said.<\/p>\n

Tur pressed Lawler on what he would consider to be a successful outcome. When Lawler cited the killing of the former Ayatollah, Tur said that the new Ayatollah might be<\/a> even more “hardline.”<\/p>\n

After back-and-forth between the two, Lawler accused Tur of repeating a talking point.<\/p>\n

“Everybody wants success! Everybody, everybody\u2014everyone wants a new regime, everyone wants democracy for Iran, absolutely. Everyone wants to be safer. Everyone is worried that it’s going to become something much more dangerous,” Tur said.<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump’s<\/u><\/a> extension of the ceasefire with Israel will last only for three to five days, a White House official confirmed to Fox News Digital on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
