A MAGA strategist who had been invited to private briefings about the war with Vice President JD Vance and other top officials said those meetings have ceased and information is scarce. And it\u2019s been more than 100 days since the Department of Defense held a press briefing for reporters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t feel like I have good insight into their messaging strategy,\u201d one person close to the Department of Defense said, requesting anonymity to speak freely. \u201cI don\u2019t feel like I understand it actually at all.\u201d<\/p><p>The lack of cohesive messaging has led some to conclude that there is no firm plan to end the conflict \u2014 which has now stretched on for six months \u2014 ahead of the midterm elections.

For some allies, it\u2019s not clear what victory is supposed to look like.<\/p><p>\u201cHow do we finish the job? It has not been answered yet,\u201d Republican Sen. Mike Rounds of South Dakota told NOTUS in an interview this month.<\/p><p>The administration has held over 30 bipartisan briefings with senior officials for Congress since the war began and during negotiations with Iran. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has typically led the briefings of Armed Services Committee members, according to multiple senators.<\/p>\n<p>The White House objected to the idea that the path in Iran is unclear.<\/p><p>\u201cPresident Trump has destroyed Iran\u2019s military capabilities and is crushing what\u2019s left of its abysmal economy with the most successful naval blockade in world history,\u201d Olivia Wales, a White House spokesperson, said in a statement to NOTUS. \u201cThe President has been clear: He will always advance America\u2019s interests and never allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.\u201d<\/p><p>A memorandum of understanding meant to kick off the process of ending the war has expired. Just this week, the Trump administration has presented two very different pictures of the war.<\/p><p>Jared Kushner, the president\u2019s son-in-law and a key negotiator with Iran, told Fox News on Monday that conversations with parts of the Iranian government were \u201cmore robust than it\u2019s maybe ever been.\u201d<\/p><p>The president contradicted him the next day.<\/p><p>\u201cThere are no talks or conversations going on, or scheduled, with the Islamic Republic of Iran,\u201d Trump <span><u>posted on Truth Social<\/u><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, when asked by NOTUS when he would restart negotiations with Iran, Trump said he might \u201cat some point. But right now, I think the situation is so good.\u201d<\/p><p>Later, he <span><u>posted on Truth Social<\/u><\/span> that he was preparing an economic crackdown meant to devastate Iran and any of its allies. \u201cANY country that allows its financial institutions, businesses, airports, or government entities to provide any type of lifeline to Iran will itself face TREMENDOUS Economic Consequences,\u201d he wrote.<\/p><p>\u201cThis will be an ECONOMIC D-DAY,\u201d he wrote, later adding: \u201cIRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/modernhomejournals.com\/?p=2788\">Rep. Jimmy Gomez Accuser Says Their Interactions Were Nonconsensual<\/a><\/p><p>Denying Iran a nuclear weapon has been the only consistent message throughout the war. It\u2019s what Iran hawks want the public to hear. But one House Republican who supports the war said that while it\u2019s the right message, it can be difficult for the public to grasp the nuances of the dangers of nuclear enrichment.<\/p><p>Over the past few weeks, Trump has told his advisers he\u2019s willing to wait to see how a strategy to further isolate Iran\u2019s economy takes hold, according to a senior administration official. They said the president\u2019s hope is to outlast the will of the Iranians, whom Trump has called \u201ccrazy motherfuckers\u201d in private.<\/p><p>Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is expected to release a plan this week for economic penalties, which officials have called the most severe sanctions yet on actors who help fund Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Cancian, a defense expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, called the current phase a \u201cbattle of economic attrition.\u201d<\/p><p>The U.S. could continue fighting Iran \u201cfor a considerable amount of time,\u201d Cancian said. But the bigger problem is what each additional strike means for the U.S.&#8217;s overall capacity as a world power.<\/p><p>\u201cEvery missile that we use is one fewer that would be available for conflict in the Western Pacific,\u201d he said.<\/p><p>Trump has also floated other options, including threatening to turn America\u2019s military power on Oman and to accelerate strikes on Iran, despite outside experts\u2019 warnings to preserve more of the remaining stockpiles. The president has been briefed repeatedly on the stockpile of munitions, according to two sources familiar with the conversations, one of whom said the current arsenal is sufficient to carry out the plans Trump has been presented should he choose to escalate the war again.<\/p><p>The uncertainty has left some in the region with a grim conclusion: \u201cThey have no clear plan, unfortunately,\u201d a Middle Eastern diplomat told NOTUS.<\/p><p>The mixed messages on what\u2019s next are grating for some Americans, Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-North Dakota), a Trump ally, told NOTUS.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the challenges is that people on either end of the spectrum \u2014 whether you\u2019re a hardcore Iran hawk versus a geopolitical dove \u2014 you might get frustrated by the on-again, off-again use of lethality, followed by short stints of negotiation,\u201d Cramer said. \u201cBut that\u2019s not surprising to me with Donald Trump because, at the end of the day, he sees things through the lens of a negotiator and a transactional political figure.\u201d<\/p><p>Sources close to Trump say the domestic pressures from the war are not a part of his calculus, but aides do consider them.<\/p><p><span><u>Surveys<\/u><\/span> and <span><u>polls<\/u><\/span> <span><u>show<\/u><\/span> a slightly lower approval for Trump\u2019s handling of the war than his overall approval rating, which hovers between 27% and 35%. A <span><u>July 30 AP\/NORC Center poll<\/u><\/span> found that 64% of American adults believe the war hasn\u2019t been worthwhile, and 72% want the U.S. to prioritize lowering gas prices.
