TL;DR Summary

Sen. Bernie Sanders praised a past Trump critique of U.S. wars in the Middle East, sharing a clip of Trump opposing broader foreign engagements, even as Trump authorized strikes on Iran. The piece notes the irony of Trump’s MAGA-era stance shifting toward military action, cites costs such as $8 trillion spent in the region, a roughly $120 billion initial strike price, and estimates up to about $210 billion overall, and highlights social-media reactions that supported Sanders’ appeal to scrutinize foreign interventions and focus on domestic priorities like infrastructure.
