They're seeing the cracks form within the administration.

They're seeing the infighting amongst Trump's, even fervent supporters are getting very frustrated.

You see the discussions happening in the Midwest of all the costs and things.

You're seeing the cracks form.

And so Iran sees no reason to change their policy

strategy.

I mean, the pain has not been incrementally ramped up against them.

We just said we're doing a blockade and they're surviving the blockade.

It's not great for them.

My biggest concern, though, is given Trump's kind of cowboy-esque ways of doing things, at what point does Iran say no one too many times?

And then it becomes, OK, well, Trump did say this is going to end a civilization or something to that effect, or I'm going to strike bridges and civilian infrastructure and power plants.

At some point, I'm concerned that he will start doing that.

And that's going to hurt the people of Iran who we should be supporting.

Not so much, obviously, the regime.

There's no love lost with this regime, but we need to be supporting these people.

Do you see it as a manipulation again?

Is that something?

Because when he said that it was not going to be an escort mission, it was just going to be, we'll give you the maps and stuff to get through.

I'm like, okay, this is a Monday morning Trump manipulation.

Are you seeing the same thing?
