Trump's is predicted to go TACO tonight on Iran

Washington — President Trump is delivering a prime-time address to update the nation on the war in Iran Wednesday night, as he predicts the operation will continue for a few more weeks and threatens to withdraw the U.S. from NATO.

Thirty-three days into Operation Epic Fury, the U.S. is already well within the four-to-six-week timeline that the president and his administration had laid out for the joint U.S.-Israeli operation. The president's remarks Tuesday that the U.S. will leave Iran in "two or three weeks" would put the military conflict beyond the high-end estimate of six weeks, despite the president's insistence that the war is ahead of schedule. Mr. Trump has said the war could end sooner if the two sides reach a deal.

A White House official told CBS News the president will restate his two-to-three-week timeline and "highlight the United States military's success in achieving all of its stated goals prior to the operation" — including destroying much of Iran's navy, ensuring Iran's regional proxy groups can no longer destabilize the region and guaranteeing that Iran can never obtain a nuclear weapon. The official said the military operation is meeting or exceeding all of its benchmarks so far.

Still, hundreds of U.S. Special Operations Forces and thousands of Marines and Army paratroopers are now in the Middle East, giving Mr. Trump additional military options in Iran if he chooses to expand the war, sources told CBS News earlier this week. If needed, those forces could participate in operations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, target Iran's Kharg Island oil terminal or seize Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium.

To unilaterally withdraw from NATO, but that doesn’t mean he won’t do it.

I think he will drop more huge bombs where the nukes are and then declare Mission Accomplished.

Or in reality, surrender.
