A bipartisan group of Congress members sat grounded on a runway for more than an hour Thursday — all because of an airshow rehearsal for Trump's White House UFC fight.Politico Playbook's Adam Wren reported the delegation was stuck aboard a Delta flight from Washington to Detroit. Among the stranded passengers: Reps. Debbie Dingell (D-MI), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Shri Thanedar (D-MI), alongside Republican Reps. Lisa McClain (R-MI) and Bob Latta (R-OH).The pilot told them there could be no traffic out of Reagan National Airport because of an airshow rehearsal tied to Sunday's UFC Freedom 250 event — President Donald Trump's marquee White House fight card, scheduled for the South Lawn on June 14, the president's 80th birthday.He added that, if they had complaints, they should call their representatives in Congress.When asked about the delay, the White House didn't apologize. "There were planned, temporary airspace holds put in place while crews performed a rehearsal in relation to Sunday's historic UFC Freedom 250 event," a spokesperson said.
President Donald Trump is not only underwater with Democrats and Independents, but now he's losing young Republicans. CNN data analyst Harry Enten revealed that when it comes to the Iran war and foreign policy in general, Trump has lost his own base. "Trump [has a] historically strong performance with younger voters. And here we're talking about voters under the age of 45. He beat Kamala Harris with them, or at least beat the prior Republican baselines with them," said Enten. "And you can see it right here on foreign policy. He absolutely crushed Kamala Harris, who was more trusted under the age of 45, on foreign policy."Trump had a nine-point lead over Harris on foreign policy, but that has shifted significantly. "He has a net approval rating now on foreign policy — 40 points underwater, a nearly 50-point switcheroo," Enten said. "So, after putting in the strongest performance, more trusted on foreign policy, the first since George W. Bush all the way back in '04, [Trump] has completely lost that advantage way down there. He is no longer groovy. According to the young people of America," Enten said. Those foreign policy numbers are coming from Trump's failure in the Iran war. "Just take a look at how people under the age of 45 feel about Iran not being worth the cost," said Enten. "Look at this: four in five —81 percent said the Iran war is not worth the cost. And look at Trump's disapproval. Basically simpatico with this, 77 percent of those under the age of 45 say the Iran war, or, excuse me, say that Trump's disapproval of the Iran war is way up there, up there like a rocket at 77 percent."The generations make it clear that it isn't worth the cost. The older end of those under 45 are members of the Millennial Generation, who faced the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Brown University's Costs of War Project showed that the casualty and injury rate for the 19 years of war come overwhelmingly from the Millennial Generation. The Harvard Institute of Politics showed that "young adults [18 to 29] are overwhelmingly skeptical about the current U.S. strategy in Iran."
