President Trump shut down a New York Times reporter at the Mar-a-Lago Halloween party when asked if he expects war with Iran that week. The question about military plans drew an immediate rebuke because expecting a commander-in-chief to broadcast secrets to enemies is illogical. After a decade of watching, the reporter should have known better than to ask for top secret info. President Trump made it clear he would never reveal classified strategies even if he had them on hand. He can take action at any moment without warning anyone. If Iran thinks the midterms offer protection, they are in for a rude awakening.
