Trump likely had a meeting but yeah there’s no way WSJ knows what was discussed.

Trump bit off more than he could chew in this situation, listening to bad advice.

Maybe, maybe not. There are always sources somewhere.

I can't believe even Trump would be reckless enough to commit ground troops and waste whatever remaining political capital he has.

Ground troops also doesn’t mean a full force invasion and occupation. You’re delusional if you believe we haven’t had troops on the ground in Iran. If we do take it Iran will just attack their own shite w drones

We’d kick Irans arse but lose a lot. Their dream scenario is us and Israel putting troops on the ground. They are sick and twisted.

To accomplish lasting control there’s no way to avoid using ground troops

Go hard or quit talking about it.

Just carpet bomb the entire country and call it a day.

FAFO.

Wrong approach. We’ve actually been very successful in not losing control of this and having the Iranian population actually on our side. The Iranians aren’t the problem, it’s the regime and outdated government. It’s ridiculous people whine about the US hardships when there are countries like Iran out there.
