After midterm loss, Trump is left to weigh his next move in Iran war that contributed to GOP debacle
Trump is weighing escalation or restraint as the war’s political cost and potential impact on oil prices shape his next decision, analysts said.
- On Thursday, States President Donald Trump said he would soon decide whether to resume military strikes on Iran, following deliberations with his national security team at the White House.
- The United States and Israel launched the conflict in February to halt Tehran's nuclear ambitions, though Republicans blamed the ongoing war for their midterm losses to Democrats in the House and Senate.
- Military officials told Trump that November 9 marks a new Moon, creating "favorable for military operations" conditions, while CENTCOM is preparing for potential combat without fresh orders from Washington.
- Reportedly, Iran sent a proposal to the United States via Qatar, offering to transfer its uranium stockpile and reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if sanctions are lifted.
- Trump told reporters he would "rather not destroy the rest of the country" but warned it might be necessary, estimating Iran's rebuilding would take 25 years.
