As I wrote after the midterm humiliation, it wasn’t the Democrats who won, but Iran. It wasn’t the vision of the Democratic Party that drove MAGA members to vote for Democrats, but the fury over the needless rising cost of living following Trump’s foolish decision to start the Iran war.
Tehran, of course, pursued a deliberate strategy of making everyone feel the pain of this war in order to undermine Trump and the GOP, including in the midterms. This is one of the significant distinctions of this war compared to America’s previous wars - neither the Taliban nor Iraq managed to turn an American attack into a global economic crisis.
That has now been achieved. The question is what Trump will do in return: Will his election humiliation force him to show greater flexibility and accept a deal with Tehran, or will the anger - and his need for vengeance - push him to accept Israel’s desired course of action and start a third round of this war?
We’ll discuss this and much more during our 13th Q&A session. It is scheduled for Saturday, November 7, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time.
