Trump would rather get wiped out in the midterms than allow Iran to have nuclear weapons they would use on us. That’s the difference between him and Johnson.
If that were actually true he wouldn’t be pussyfooting around but here we are
Is Johnson wrong about Epic Fury’s success in derailing Iran’s nuclear ambitions?
“Trump would rather get wiped out in the midterms than allow Iran to have nuclear weapons they would use on us.”
Bravo! And the job is not finished. Iran is still a threat to the world and capable of supplying arms to it’s terrorist groups along with working toward a nuclear bomb and a hypersonic missile with a 12K kilo range able to hit the conus. This is not like Vietnam, Afghanistan, or Korea where we backed out in action for that region. We are fighting for our safety and security here. And if Iran is allowed to control the straits cutting off neighboring countries, the west, and the EU, you will see WW III. There is no alternative but to fold up on Iran for everyone else if we bail. Just that simple.

Nobody in this administration (or any other, for that matter) has ever made a clear case to convince Americans that they have any confidence in the effectiveness of these idiotic military campaigns in achieving the goals they established in the first place.

If we accept the premise that Iran having nuclear weapons is an existential and intolerable threat then why waste time with MOU’s, frameworks for future negotiations, unofficial back channel talks, dubious mediators, and attempts at deals which everyone knows will never be honored by the Iranians? Iran sees any sign of hesitance or delays as weakness, and the more time they get the more trouble they create. Serious threats deserve a commensurate response and the resolve to finish what we started. Had this been a short and decisive war, the political fallout have been minimized IMO. In fact, Trump would probably have been heralded for winning one of the shortest wars in history.
