Later, 1:46 p.m. CT: Trump says he will "make decision" within two weeks. 

I think that's "fair and balanced." I think it does show that Trump does not "shoot from the hip," but like his criticism of "too-late Powell" one can argue that Trump will be seen as vacillating. From my perspective, Trump has been played by:

  • Putin
  • Khomeini
  • Jerome Powell
  • his own party

The good news: Israel is unfettered. And will get all the support it needs from the US. The only decision Trump is making is whether to attempt to take out a nuclear site with a B-2 Spirit and the MOP. Israel has said it can take out the facility without the bunker buster.
