Report: Trump Weighs Strike on Iran Before Midterms
Original: Trump Is Mulling a Pre-Midterms Strike on Iran to Help Drum Up Support: Report
A Rolling Stone report says Donald Trump is considering a military strike on Iran ahead of the US midterm elections, with the aim of rallying political support for his party. The claim, based on unnamed sources, has not been independently confirmed, and the White House has not publicly addressed the report. Critics say using military action for electoral gain would be a dangerous precedent, while supporters of a harder line on Iran may welcome the signal.
Why now: A new report alleging the president might use military action against Iran for political gain is drawing intense attention ahead of the midterms.
