DID Press: US President Donald Trump is reportedly frustrated that his promises of a swift victory in the war with Iran have not materialised and is seeking to shift responsibility for the setbacks onto others, according to an article published by The Atlantic magazine.
The magazine reported that the failure to achieve the war’s objectives, coupled with concerns about weakening the Republican Party’s position ahead of the US midterm elections, has intensified pressure on Trump.
The Atlantic added that US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is also facing intense scrutiny and pressure. The magazine attributed this to the presentation of an unrealistic picture of the war’s progress and the restriction of reports to information that Trump wants to hear.
