"I think the omission [of the Iranian people] is part of the fact that [Trump] does not know what comes next," said Vivian Salama. "He can say that we're winding down because he has never quite defined what the end game looks like, what victory looks like."

"The question that becomes is, if you don’t have a new regime, if you don’t have a change in the country … does this mean that we have to do it again in five years or 10 years or one year — who knows," said @peterbakernyt.bsky.social. "[Iran has] made clear that they're not giving up."

"Donald Trump has been very clear that he wants to keep the blockade. He thinks the blockade is working. I think there are reasons to surmise that the blockade is having some effect. It seems to be putting pressure on the Iranians in power right now," said Stephen Hayes.

"I think there is a growing fear in the world that America's promises that it will sacrifice its own cities to save those of its allies, ... people just don't believe it," said David Ignatius.

"The key thing to remember about the Epstein story is that it is a case that has been mishandled for decades," said @sfifz787.bsky.social. "For the first time, Republicans in Congress and Democrats ... were willing to openly defy their leadership and call for the release of these files."

"I can say that the administration is still trying to limit the objectives and not make this look like an endless war, but it's been a mess in terms of the messaging of what this actually looks like, what an endgame actually looks like," said @markmazzetti.bsky.social.

"[Trump] came in as an America First president, that he wasn’t going to get involved in international affairs. I think the shock is not that he has so many different ideas, but that it's so at odds with what he promised the administration would be,” said @nancyayoussef.bsky.social.

Why did President Trump decide to go to war against Iran? "Why now is still an open question," said @peterbakernyt.bsky.social. "I think a lot of reasons are he felt emboldened by Venezuela, and he's becoming increasingly comfortable with power as he goes further into his second term."

"When you are at war with another country, the other country gets a say," said @seungminkim1.bsky.social. "[Trump's] ambitions are not something that's easily explainable to the voter who is looking at the gas tank, who is looking at the price tag when they fill up their cars."

"I think the best way to make sense of it is to recognize that Iran and America have different definitions of 'winning' and what 'losing' is," said Gillian Tett.

Lawrence O'Donnell: ...“Donald Trump is now just 27 days away from completing the 80th year of his life. And on this the 338th day of Donald Trump’s 80th year, he finally said: ‘I don’t want to be stupid.’ ..... Too late Donald. ...Too late!” Full video: youtu.be/7DTTPfnWYHc

"What's been so striking is how many of those very same Republicans who were calling for the release of the files, had promised to get to the bottom of them, are now saying things that are just the opposite," said Stephen Hayes.

Sec. Buttigieg: Most Americans agree with us that the government should be doing more and not less to make sure you can get health care, and that you can afford it. That means expanding Medicaid and expanding the Affordable Care Act — not tearing it down.

Donald Trump went to a military high school and thinks he knows more than about war than our admirals and generals. The cost of his arrogance? 13 dead Americans, 150 dead Iranian children, Gas prices spiking at home, and a war with no off-ramp.
