But, that doesn't mean Trump is going to "lose" his war with #Iran
Altho never (consistently) defined, the goals of this war are quite clear:
- Dominance of the headlines in America as a "strong man"
- Raising oil prices to benefit the fossil fuel oligarchs, esp Putin
- Further consolidation of Trump's imperial control of US institutions
- Massive grifts (see Kushner's latest ME shakedown)
By those measures, the war is a smashing success.
