Iran Gamble

Trump took a gamble to get a cheap, swift regime change in Iran, and it didn't work. Not sure why nobody sees this for what it was. We obviously are not going to get bogged down in another drawn-out ME conflict as the hawks want. Was it worth the try? Hard to say. None of these foreign policy adventures are clean winners and clean losers as much as we would like to think. The liberal pundits like to say the US keeps screwing up post-WW2, but I imagine any other country in the world would change geopolitical places with us in a heartbeat if given the option. Explain that to me.
