### Trump Says War with Iran is “Almost Over” — But What Does That Even Mean?
So Trump’s out here saying the war with Iran is “almost over.” What exactly does that mean? Is there a finish line somewhere that we just can’t see? He’s also claiming that the U.S. is nailing down “all of its goals” in the region. That’s nice, but what goals are we talking about? The ones that change every week based on whatever tweet storm is brewing?
CBS News trots out Robert Costa to give us the scoop, along with Michael Doran from the Hudson Institute, who’s apparently got all the answers. Yet, the details on these supposed accomplishments are as vague as ever.
It’s almost like they think if they repeat the phrase “almost over” enough, we’ll forget how long this has been dragging on. And let’s be real—“almost” is a slippery term. It’s the kind of word that lets you slide out of responsibility while keeping the narrative alive.
Meanwhile, the real question remains: are we actually any closer to peace, or is this just another case of political spin trying to pass off the status quo as progress? Because if we’re counting on politicians to wrap up a complex conflict with a neat little bow, we might be waiting a while.
Are we really buying what they’re selling, or is this just the same old song and dance?
