Because there are ZERO options for President Trump that end up in an American success. He foreclosed that option when he launched the war last February. It was a no-win situation from the beginning, and now the only question that remains:
How bad will the loss end up?
None of the options in front of Trump offer a clear route to American victory. As things carry on, the American people will need persausive explanations of the strategy and clear justifications of the cost. My latest @TheFP... 8/8
