In this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Hanson cuts through the hysteria surrounding Donald Trump's decision to end the security details for Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Anthony Fauci, highlighting their financial standings and Trump's stance on their protection: 

Donald Trump said, when he was pressed about this, “aren't you worried that you may be culpable if any of them are harmed, since, supposedly, right-wingers don't like Fauci and the Iranians are mad at Bolton and Pompeo?”

And he said, “do we give security details forever?” 

“Donald Trump will do more to keep Pompeo and Bolton safe by confronting Iran. And he already has told Iran that they are going to be held responsible, not just for threatening Bolton's life or Pompeo's, but his life.”
