California Governor Newsom wrote today: "The corrupt and authoritarian Iranian regime must not be allowed to have nuclear weapons. The Iranian leadership must fall. But this is not a reason for President Trump of the United States to launch an illegal and dangerous war - a war that unjustifiably puts American troops and our allies in danger, and cannot be explained to the American people. President Trump is putting Americans overseas in danger because he is unpopular domestically."
Comment: As a prominent Democratic governor, Newsom has put political motives on the table: he does not deny his dissatisfaction with the Iranian regime, but firmly opposes solving problems through illegal wars. Essentially, it is exposing the real purpose of Trump using foreign wars to shift domestic issues and save his popularity.
