Trump-loving former baseball star says he’s done if POTUS takes US to war

Former MLB star Zack Cozart says there is one thing that could make him stop supporting President Donald Trump.

The ex-Cincinnati Reds shortstop said on Monday that his support for the president would quickly come to an end if the United States went to war. This comes as tensions between America and Iran continue to rise. On Monday, Trump cut short his trip to the G7 Summit in Canada, with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt citing “what’s going on in the Middle East.”

“President Trump had a great day at the G7, even signing a major trade deal with the United Kingdom and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Much was accomplished, but because of what’s going on in the Middle East, President Trump will be leaving tonight after dinner with Heads of State,” she explained.

Cozart shared his take on X:

If Trump gets us in a war I will no longer support him and I’m sure most of you know I love Trump https://t.co/h9JPV49DPy

“If Trump gets us in a war I will no longer support him and I’m sure most of you know I love Trump,” he wrote.

“Trump has requested that the National Security Council be prepared in the situation room for his return,” Fox News reported; however, it’s important to note that White House spokesperson Alex Pfeiffer is denying that the military will be joining Israel’s attacks on Iran.

This is not true. American forces are maintaining their defensive posture, and that has not changed. We will defend American interests. https://t.co/XqWbDvzif0

“This is not true. American forces are maintaining their defensive posture, and that has not changed. We will defend American interests,” he wrote in an X post.

He is doing everything to protect us from nuclear bombs

Trump ends wars, not starts them.
ISIS, Afghanistan peace deal, Ukraine. All ending the fighting.

Cut the guy some slack given his history.
With over 700,000 Americans living in Israel there is a need to protect them. Short of going to war with Iran.

Calm down Sally, no one’s talking boots on the ground but if we have the technology to do it remotely then we do it. No one’s getting into a war it’s an action item that’s all. chill.

You can’t have the world’s chief sponsor of terrorism acquire nuclear weapons. Imagine if Iran had the capacity to smuggle dirty bombs to its proxies.

So you would prefer to live with a terror state funding terror attacks killing innocent people, fact, and potentially have a nuclear weapon, also fact, very soon? As a veteran of the war on terror and Operation Enduring Freedom I can promise you that you don’t want that!
