<p>Bill Maher put Senator Elissa Slotkin on the spot Friday, challenging the Michigan Democrat to defend her party&#8217;s opposition to President Donald Trump&#8217;s military actions against the Iranian regime.</p>
<p>Speaking to Slotkin on the latest episode of his show &#8220;Real Time,&#8221; Maher marveled that Slotkin and the majority of Democrats &#8220;miraculously&#8221; reached the exact conclusion on Operation Epic Fury. The one exception to that, Maher pointed out, was Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman.</p>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Bill Maher: “There’s one guy [Sen.] John Fetterman (D-PA)… who has dissented from the Democratic Party line. Is that really the case? Really, there’s only one person in the whole party who thinks differently? You all miraculously came to the same conclusion on Iran?</p>

<p>&#8220;There’s one guy, John Fetterman, who I can think of who has dissented from the Democratic Party line,&#8221; Maher explained. &#8220;Is that really the case? Really, there’s only one person in the whole party who thinks differently? You all miraculously came to the exact same conclusion about Iran?&#8221;</p>
<p>Slotkin attempted to push back, citing her own experience with the CIA and saying that she agreed that the Iranian regime was comprised of bad actors.</p>
<p>Adding that there was &#8220;no love lost&#8221; between her and the Iranian regime, she said, &#8220;The Iranian regime killed friends of mine with rockets and mortars and IEDs. But that’s different from just running headlong into a war without being able to articulate your goals and how you’re going to get out of it.&#8221;</p>
<p>“See, that’s the Democrat talking point I hear all the time and I don’t know if it’s true,&#8221; Maher objected. &#8220;I think they were planning to say that whether he did it or not, and then he did it, and they just kept saying it even though they did say many times, &#8216;Okay, we found out that they were very close to the bomb.&#8217; I mean, that&#8217;s what came out in the negotiations.&#8221;</p>
<p>Slotkin immediately pivoted, abandoning her claim that the Trump administration had not properly articulated its goals and objecting instead that the war was ongoing despite the fact that the goals had been met.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">WOW: Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) ADMITS the Trump administration has completely degraded Iran’s nuclear capabilities, ballistic missiles, and other important things in the Iranian government.</p>
<p>“I can say very openly… we have for sure degraded their nuclear capabilities. For sure… <a href="https://t.co/oKtx8eKb56">pic.twitter.com/oKtx8eKb56</a></p>

&#8220;I can say very openly as a national security person, we have for sure degraded their nuclear capabilities. For sure degraded their ballistic missile capabilities,&#8221; Slotkin said, adding that those were certainly &#8220;important things in terms of the Iranian government.&#8221;</p>
