President Donald Trump didn't just fail to accomplish all his objectives in Iran and damage the U.S. economy, former Republican speechwriter Tim Miller told MS NOW's Chris Hayes on Wednesday — he also left Israel in the lurch, after right-wing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu went all in on attaching himself to the U.S. president.
