@gregly@retro.pizza @bontchev@infosec.exchange I don't think Trump actually wants war though. What he wants is to 'negotiate' and prove that he is the best deal-maker. He just just pragmatic about it, and knows that the best way to get a good deal from someone may be to have a gun to their head. Most of the time you don't even have to pull the trigger, you just have to make sure they know you are willing to. He is probably a bit confused about why Iran aren't begging to surrender yet.
