Don't search for a new Trump doctrine. The underlying story is that they make it up as they go along. They are incompetent. They have incoherent goals and plans. That's why Iran makes no sense. https://t.co/q1YtqGCUV2

I talked to @amanpour today about an overlooked piece of the Iran debacle. Trump has urged Iranians to take down the regime. But it doesn't appear Trump is willing to do anything to protect them if they take to the streets. He could be pushing tens of thousands to slaughter. https://t.co/Sga7tIh0q1

Americans are dead. Prices are skyrocketing. The Middle East is on fire. Civil war is brewing in Iran. And for what? A war that will leave the same hardliners in charge? A war that can't actually destroy their nuclear program? This is incompetence. Plain and simple. https://t.co/aBpD8dAlBY

I want to walk you through why it’s nearly certain Trump’s Iran War is going to be a massive, deadly, trillion dollar failure. And why you should be furious he’s set us on this path.
