The One FATAL MISTAKE Trump Made That Lost Iran War! – John Mearsheimer

Professor John Mearsheimer explains that Trump was "bamboozled" by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Mossad chief David Barnea into believing that a shock-and-awe air campaign with a decapitation strategy would cause Iran's regime to collapse quickly, despite nearly all of Trump's top advisers—including General Caine, John Ratcliffe, JD Vance, and Marco Rubio—warning him that "an air campaign alone toppling a regime" has never worked in recorded history. Mearsheimer notes that the US has now depleted its inventory of "boutique weapons" to a dangerous point, which is why military commanders are advising Trump not to restart the war—"we don't have the weaponry to wage it." He adds that Iran refuses to negotiate with Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff because they are "Israeli cutouts" and "massively incompetent," leaving the US stuck with no good options. Jimmy concludes that Trump has "no cards to play except bad ones" because restarting the war would cause Iran to wipe out Gulf States' desalination plants and oil production, leading to food shortages, skyrocketing energy prices, and further economic pain for Americans.
