According to writer Sean O'Grady in an article for The Independent, U.S. President Donald Trump has begun to feel weary of the war he ignited in Iran, noting that his desire to end this conflict stems from his aim to direct his fire towards the opponent he fears most: the upcoming midterm elections scheduled for November.
Trump's personal reading indicates that he tends to get bored quickly, as he does not prefer to read brief reports or spend hours with advisors discussing policy options, to the extent that he might doze off during televised government meetings. He has previously admitted that listening to others is "extremely boring."
Details of the Event
According to O'Grady, Trump has grown tired of the war in Iran, which was supposed to end swiftly, just like when the U.S. Air Force bombed nuclear sites last year in the "Midnight Hammer" operation, or as happened in Venezuela, or even his earlier idea of purchasing Greenland, which could have served as a facade for achieving a "quick victory" that would immortalize his name in history.
Trump's current interests focus on the complex of his presidential library and hotel, along with a giant golden statue of himself, while he feels frustrated with allies he perceives as not rushing to assist Washington. He is also concerned about the declining popularity of the war he is waging on Iran, prompting him to end it and present it as a "great victory" through an official speech from the White House.
Context and Background
It seems that Trump will announce victory within two weeks to avoid a deterioration of the situation and its impact on fuel prices, financial markets, and his electoral base. He is expected to steer clear of an apologetic tone, instead declaring something akin to "mission accomplished," boasting that it is the most successful operation in American history, something that neither former Presidents Barack Obama nor Joe Biden could achieve.
According to analysis, Trump will attempt to humiliate the British and others who refused to participate in the war, and he will direct threats towards NATO, although Congress has made withdrawal a difficult matter. Meanwhile, military leaders will advise him that the Iran crisis has proven Washington's need for allies beyond mere Israeli support.
Impact and Consequences
Trump needs to focus on declining poll numbers and the upcoming elections, which represent an existential issue for him; losing control of Congress means the re-emergence of the threat of "impeachment." Even if they fail to impeach him, he would become a "lame duck" president without real influence for the remainder of his term.
Trump's thoughts indicate a desire to cancel the elections or question their integrity, as he stated to Reuters that he has achieved success that makes holding elections unnecessary. He also expressed regret for not directing the National Guard to seize voting machines after the 2020 elections, alongside the infamous events of January 6.
Impact on the Arab Region
Trump's plans to "steal" the elections through various tactics, including issuing an executive order to restrict mail-in voting and attempting to pass the "Protecting American Voter Eligibility" law to undermine democratic voting, are revealing. He also wants to have Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials present at polling places to undermine the credibility of officials.
Election manipulation could end his term early if impeachment procedures are activated, potentially paving the way for his vice president, DeVance, to take power and save the "MAGA" movement from its founder's "madness" while attempting to win the 2028 elections.
In conclusion, Trump is terrified of the results of the upcoming November elections, which explains his efforts to end the Iran war and focus on election manipulation plans. Current evaluations of Trump have reached a level referred to as the "valley of death" according to analysts from CNN, which is worse than Nixon's ratings during the Watergate scandal.
