Victor Davis Hanson: What the Situation On the Ground In Iran Actually Looks Like

Episode length: 12m

Iran’s strategy may be less about negotiating with President Donald Trump and more about delaying, dragging out the conflict and waiting for the Democratic Socialists to take power in Congress. But while the Left claims Trump is running out of time, the reality on the ground suggests Iran is the one being squeezed, with its economy, military and industrial infrastructure steadily deteriorating.

Victor David Hanson argues that Iran may be trying to survive until the 2026 midterms, but the growing radicalism of the Democratic Party could ultimately give Trump and Republicans a political advantage on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
