As usual, Trump will create a lot of mess, proclaim a victory, then get bored, leave and let others cleanup his shit.

Trump built his perfect war echo chamber, so that his ego doesn't get challenged even in matters of life and death.

Preparations for a major military operation typically involve weeks or months of deliberations, written options papers, dissenting views from officials across different agencies, and meetings with the National Security Council. But according to administration officials, planning for the Iran operation was handled by a much smaller circle.

This included Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. While this allowed Trump to limit leaks and move quickly as events shifted, it also narrowed the range of advice and dissent that reached the president as he weighed the risks of attacking Iran.

The Constitution explicitly forbids the echo chamber on war-related matters, but the pompous lying moron found a way around the prohibition by making this laughable claim : "the imminent threat was that we knew that if Iran was attacked, and we believed they would be attacked, that they would immediately come after us."
