Rick Scott, R-Florida, told &#8220;The Hill&#8221; on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;He&#8217;s given diplomacy a chance. Iran has walked away from it,&#8221; Scott, a member of the Armed Services Committee, said. &#8220;At some point, he will not have a choice but to do more to destroy their ability to produce weapons.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Scott added he&#8217;s not privy to intelligence provided to Trump. He was responding to comments made earlier in the week by Sen. Jim Justice, R-W.Va., who lamented that the Iran war has become a &#8220;mess&#8221; as it nears the six-month mark.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;We&#8217;d all like gas prices down, and we&#8217;d all like not to be at war,&#8221; Scott said. &#8220;War&#8217;s horrible but being killed by a nuclear weapon is worse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Copyright 2026 Nexstar Media, Inc.
