Trump May See Nuking Iran as ‘Safer’ Option: Conservative Magazine Editor
https://www.newsweek.com/trump-may-see-nuking-iran-as-safer-option-conservative-magazine-editor-11764509
Andrew Day, senior editor at The American Conservative, a conservative publication, is raising alarms about what he sees as a dangerous calculus in the Trump administration's approach to the Iran war: that the president might view nuclear weapons as a more politically palatable option than a ground invasion.
In a series of posts on social media, Day argues that President Donald Trump could rationalize nuclear strikes on Iran as preferable to deploying American troops on the ground.
"Considering only 7% of Americans support a ground invasion, and since all the ground force operation options sound like suicide missions, Trump might even see nuclear weapons as the safer political option," Day posted on X.
