The reason I voted for Trump is that he’s smarter than all those experts calling for a military response or war with Iran. Attacking is what Iran’wants us to do because Trump’s sanctions are working and the mullahs cannot bear them. Overt military confrontation changes the political equation to Iran’s advantage. Deny the gambit, and double down on what is apparently working so well.
You bring up some good points. As I often say — Trump is much more patient and disciplined than many people expected. Trump will weigh options and respond at a time that puts him in an advantage.

I tend to agree.
However, I think a few missing subs and mysterious ammo depot explosions could help drive home the point. Without US claim, of course.
Just as Iran is now behaving.
