I’m not sure who the bigger clowns are here: Trump or the people who still support him

Let's not forget that no matter what happens with this trial the US military has to regard the plans as being compromise. Whatever plan they had is the best plan they had which offered the best chances of success with the lowest losses of American lives. They now have to assume that Iran has those plans and is actively working on how to defend against precisely that. Therefore the US military would have to go in with a lesser plan that will possibly not be as successful and possibly cause higher losses.
