Trump rattled as he suddenly faces twin foreign policy crises —
and has nowhere to turn for help
The U.S embassy in Baghdad is recovering from an assault that grew out of a pro-Iran protest.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has uncorked a new round of aggressive rhetoric of his own. Kim has said he is ready to take “shocking actual action.”
Trump’s attempts at diplomacy with the rogue nation have amounted to very little and have done nothing to alter Kim’s strategic interests.
Likewise in Iran, Trump’s failure is also on display. He tore up the Iran deal President Barack Obama had established with no good justification, insisting that being tough on the country could induce it to accept even more punishing terms.
the ratcheting up of violence and provocation on both sides could lead Trump on the path to war even if he genuinely wants to avoid it.
in Trump’s North Korea and Iran foreign policy, he largely alienated American allies and the interagency staffers who typically shape U.S. diplomacy.
going his own way hasn’t proved to be a successful method.
Trump has also dramatically undercut his own credibility by prematurely declaring victory in both North Korea and Iran.
The twin crises, of course, are arising when Trump is uniquely vulnerable.

They attacked the embassy. This isn't Benghazi where we just let Americans die and blame it on youtube.
Chris retweeting neocon war mongers![]()
When? How many deaths? Protesting counts as an attack?
THIS is being red pilled. This is being WOKE. Not like the Zionist and neocon war mongers blind patriots on this forum.
You can't tell? That's scary. Or sad. Do you even know what a neocon is?
Chris, is this true?
One would ordinarily expect a US President to explain what he did and why he did it, especially when the action is an unequivocal act of war.
Instead, Trump just tweets an American flag.
Pathetic.
