Trump dithers on Iran policy

President Donald Trump, the great master of the deal, has stumbled his way to the brink of war with Iran. He has no clear policy or objectives, as far as I can tell, on the situation; and his advisers are equally inept at articulating any coherent approach to the situation.

Worse yet, we have a trade war with China impacting the economy, more North Korean missile launches, and we are under cyberattack from Russia. Not to mention the failure in Venezuela to oust the president we do not support.

Trump has backed himself into a corner across the board on foreign policy, and our country is less safe for it. I pray we can avoid war, but I fear the worse.
