Democratic lawmakers have continued to criticise President Donald Trump’s handling of the war with Iran, arguing that the recently announced agreement with Tehran is already showing signs of strain.
Congressman Johnny Olszewski of Maryland described the conflict as a “war of choice” and said the administration’s approach had been a “disaster”.
In a post on X, Olszewski wrote: “The dressed up ceasefire masquerading as a ‘deal’ is already falling apart. Americans deserve better.”
Representative Pramila Jayapal also criticised the administration and congressional Republicans, alleging that cuts to Medicare had helped fund the war effort.
“They are not confused about what we want. They just work for someone else,” she said.
