Pro-MAGA Real America's Voice host Gina Loudon revealed that she was underwhelmed by President Donald Trump's Wednesday night address to the nation about the war in Iran.
During a Thursday morning segment, Loudon reflected on the speech with co-hosts David Brody and Terrence Bates.

"He basically said that everything is on track and that completion of military objectives," Bates noted. "Soon, kind of in parentheses, two to three weeks is the number he floated."
"But I don't know," he remarked. "I still have questions, Dr. Gina. Did you get all the questions last night that you wanted answered?"
"Well, since, as David Brody pointed out this morning, I believe in our production call, he never said the word ground troops at all," Loudon replied. "Didn't address. No comment. So that meant that a lot of America went, oh, okay, well, we're not going to, we're not going to insert any ground troops. That's great. But is that what that meant? I don't know the answer to that."
"And I was my whole time, this whole time, like, I literally was like, that's it?" she complained. "I don't know about anybody else. That's what I was thinking. I was like, that's what, wait, huh? I didn't understand."
For his part, Brody called on the "forever war crowd" to calm down.
"And I get it. Don't get me wrong," he said. "I understand the concerns. But we're talking 32 days as opposed to 19 years in Vietnam. So let's just settle it down here and let's see where we go."
Loudon fired back: "Yeah, well, some of us are, you know, thinking historically, and we're a little older and wiser, and we just want to have we want to have — we want to be the accountability partner for the president that we love."
