It's Wednesday, March 11th.
I'm Jane Costen, and this is What A Day, the show that says U.S.
Special Envoy Steve Whitcoff should start working on some new explanations for why we're in Iran
because this answer to CNBC's Sarah Eisen on Tuesday is not going to cut it.
On Iran, what do you say people to, Steve, Americans who,
you know, are struggling, they're worried about higher gas prices, higher grocery prices,
health insurance, you know, making ends meet, you know, don't want foreign wars,
certainly ones that don't have end dates and that risk American lives.
What do you say to them about why this is so critical for the US to be doing what it is doing in Iran right now?
How do you persuade them?
I say to them, Sarah, that if they have children,
think about what this world would look like if you didn't have Donald Trump as the president.
I think about that every single day, Steve.
Every single day.
On today's show, one report says at least 20 countries are now militarily involved in the Iran war.
And buckle up, because we're headed back to the future.
Flying cars are actually, maybe, really happening.
But let's start with the economy.
In case you haven't noticed,
the American economy is not doing so great right now, for a lot of reasons.
