The fecklessness of Trump and his minions is beyond belief. Our former allies don't trust us, our former and current enemies laugh at us. Withdrawing from the multi-nation Iran nuclear deal was simply an act of pique exacerbated by Pompeo who prays for Armageddon and Bolton who prays for war. Now Iran is enriching uranium at a fast pace and Trump and company are at wit's end (which for them isn't very far but still) as to what to do about it. Trump has been badmouthing all intelligence and all intelligence agencies so, like the boy who cried wolf, no one trusts his intelligence bluster that Iran is deliberately targeting oil tankers in the straits of Hormuz.
This article from Slate is a must read. The last line made me laugh out loud.
