'Get your story straight!' Analyst gets into fiery exchange on CNN over Trump's deal

A political analyst and a conservative columnist got into a heated exchange on CNN's "NewsNight" with host Abby Phillip on Monday.

Charles Blow, author of "Blow the Stack" on Substack, and Caroline Downey, a columnist for The National Review, got into an argument over the deal President Donald Trump made with the Iranian regime during a panel debate. The argument happened at a time when the Memorandum of Understanding signed by both parties is being sharply criticized in the U.S. The agreement includes terms such as allowing Iran to resume selling oil and delaying talks about stopping the country from pursuing a nuclear weapon.

Downey suggested that if the Iranians don't abide by the terms of the deal, then Trump should "wipe them out," echoing past threats Trump himself has made. The exchange became testy as Blow pressed for more detail.

At one point, Downey claimed that Trump could increase military pressure on Iran through additional strikes, a point that she later denied making in the exchange with Blow. Blow wasted no time in pointing that out.

"I need you to get your story straight!" Blow said sharply. "You were the one recommending it, and now you're saying you're not. So which one is it?"

Downey stumbled a little as she tried to explain her position

"C'mon, get it out," Blow said, egging her on. "Get it all out of your mouth."
