VapidActualization21 hr ago

It doesn't need to look as good. He just personally needs Iran to show him face and let him pretend to have "solved" the problem.
But they aren't incentivized to do that in the current situation. Furthermore, he has spurned so many allies along the way that he will struggle to get any pressure placed on Iran internationally which might help them want to bring this to an end.
Basically, he has to find a way to garner support from the UN to put Iran in a bad place financially OR somehow find a way to bring them under hand with military might. But we've seen what the best funded military is capable of under the ultimate command of several absolutely incompetent people; we look weak as f*** without the leadership necessary to actually get reaults.
He can't even get them to chill out by giving them an obscene amount of money because they are happy to let America throw away all the credibility it has earned in both soft and hard power over the last 150 years.

Simple follow ups. ‘Who did you speak to that agreed to everything?
Since the objectives were never identified and announced prior to the war can you identify what the U.S. objectives are and which objectives have been won?
