Lawrence: Trump's the first president in history to say he's 'too busy' to explain a war he's waging - The Last Word



MS NOW’s Lawrence O’Donnell details how Donald Trump had enough time to brag about his ballroom and wanting to make the reflecting pool “waterproof,” but not enough time to explain why he is waging his war in Iran as his Justice Department plans to give “massive payoffs to the people who attacked the Capitol for Donald Trump.” - Aired on 05/19/2026.

Drones attacking his stupidly costly baal room...

Time to distract from his involvements in the dump-epstein files he has.

His arch, the beautification of DC, and all of his other delusions but not the war he started against a sovereign country without consultation of Congress or allies or his reasons for doing it or how he’s gonna end it. He has disrupted the world’s economy, including ours but by god, snipers will have lookouts and other tools to keep him safe. He makes me sick.

5. He scares me more every day, if he's willing to launch an illegal war and reward dangerous convicts
