It is futile to discuss this before the midterms. Before the midterms we have:

1) Rubio saying that the Iran war was basically won.

2) Thiel saying that the US should not have started the Iran war!

3) Musk being tough on Ukraine yet again.

4) Trump saying that Ukraine won't get Patriots (of which there is actually a shortage anyway).

This is all election rhetoric so MAGA goes to the voting booths. It is literally the same theater as before the 2024 presidential elections. Watch what happens after the elections.
