Sen. Elizabeth Warren tried to sidestep a question by ABC’s The View host Meghan McCain about her position on President Trump’s ordered killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani three times.

I don’t understand the flip-flop. I don’t understand why it was so hard to call him a terrorist, and I would just like you to explain the change.”
