president trump, either coming from experts or in the field or coming from the media. i think trump has set up a kind of situation here whereby when you criticize him, many of his supporters feel you're criticizing us too. and that is because so much of the criticism of president trump does get to be personal. and vindictive, and antagonistic. there's many intelligent criticism out there of the trump administration, but too much of it, i think, is surrounded by that kind. >> david, as critical as people have been over his pull out from the iran nuclear deal, maybe how he has approached north korea more broadly, this is what he said he was going to do when you see him pulling out of the iran deal. this is what the voters elected. >> yes, he's keeping his promises. the danger is he's letting his domestic political calculation drive his international calculation, but i think we need to see what happens here. i sort of agree with max. he set up a clear parallel.
