  • I still think you’re giving this administration too much credit. The way I see it, this Iran attack was Trump thinking he could do what no president had done before (regime change and, by extension, a thawing of relations between the US and Iran), because he did essentially that in Venezuela, and I don’t think he recognized any of the differences between the two countries regarding strategic leverage. Everything the man does is about his own ego at the end of the day–I don’t think he has a coherent idea of how everything comes together other than simple might-makes-right. The old state department ghouls (whose views were the basis of what became US policy on Ukraine under Biden) are no longer in charge, so the idea there’s an overarching plan anymore is, in my opinion, inaccurate.
