A White House source has stated that President Donald Trump faces a 'politically impossible' path to victory regarding the ongoing conflict in Iran. The insider noted that the American public will not support the level of escalation required to achieve his goals at this stage.
The news came after four United States service members died this week. The president restarted hostilities following the collapse of a memorandum of understanding earlier this year. This latest development brings the total American death toll to 18 since the conflict began in February. How much longer can the administration sustain this trajectory?
