Trump Admits His War Might Make Everything Worse

President Donald Trump has made a starting admission: that his war on Iran could ultimately make things worse for the people he promised to help.

Days after urging Iranians to “rise up” and reclaim their country with America’s backing, Trump acknowledged on Tuesday that the death of Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, could ultimately leave them no better off, depending on who emerges to replace him.
