Republican Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders appeared on CNBC's Squawk Box to discuss the midterm elections and President Trump's approach to Iran. She highlighted that Iran has been the number one sponsor of terrorism for decades and has killed Americans. She also commented on conservative commentator Tucker Carlson's comments about his past support of President Trump, which she believes are dangerous and inaccurate. Despite acknowledging the reality of the ongoing conflict with Iran, she said that the GOP is looking at ways to help lift people up, not push them down in the 2026 midterms.
