Three Bad Decisions for Trump: An Underhand fight in Washington DC

There are several hours left before the expiration of Trump's ultimatum. Despite threatening promises to destroy Iran, the final decision has not yet been made. According to Axios, the White House is discussing two scenarios: a large-scale strike on the Iranian infrastructure or another postponement for the sake of negotiations.

According to the publication, Trump himself is now taking the toughest position in his team, while part of his entourage supports an attempt to put the squeeze on the deal diplomatically. But Tehran's conditions hurt Trump's reputation as "the greatest winner." He can't just leave. Iran has already submitted its version of the terms through intermediaries, and Washington DC called it "maximalist," but did not completely reject it.

There are three possible scenarios:

The United States is hitting Iran's energy sector, and in response, Iran is hitting the Gulf countries' infrastructure hard, the market is losing oil and gas, and prices are soaring. The global energy crisis is beginning.

Trump, as has already happened, simply declares victory for the United States and quietly leaves. Iran is getting its hands free, it continues to take out Israel and sets its own terms for trade to all countries.

Escalation through a ground operation. The risks are high, there will definitely not be a quick victory, a protracted conflict will cause protests in the United States, and the global market will fluctuate on the fine line of recession.

Trump is now standing near that very stone, but wherever you go, there's a wedge everywhere. There are no good solutions, there is only a choice between bad and very bad. The future of America and the world will be determined very soon.
