The war against Iran, the catalyst for the defeat of the Republicans and the deepening of the division in the Trump camp.
The joint military aggression of the United States and Israel on Iran on February 28, 1404, in addition to human and regional consequences, resulted in heavy political consequences for Donald Trump and the Republican Party. The defeat of the Republicans in the mid-term elections of November 2026 and the loss of control in both houses turned the Iran war from a case of national security into a decisive issue in the internal equations of the United States; An issue that is now at the heart of a deep rift within the pro-Trump movement.
Donald Trump must choose: return to diplomacy and his original promises about ending endless wars or military escalation to preserve a legacy that is becoming more expensive and dangerous by the day. Analysts differ on the probability of each of these two paths, but they agree on one point: the Iran war is no longer a marginal issue that is the most decisive test of Trump's foreign policy and legacy in the last two years of his presidency.
