A fiery confrontation erupted on Capitol Hill as Senator Cory Booker accused President Donald Trump of 'begging' Iran for a deal, triggering an intense back-and-forth with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. What began as a debate over U.S. policy toward Iran quickly escalated into a heated clash over diplomacy, military action, and the future of America's role in the Middle East.

Rubio insisted “there’s no one begging” for a deal with Iran.

Booker told Rubio that Trump's failure to end the conflict swiftly has left the Iranian regime in a "stronger negotiating position" than ever.
