Fareed Zakaria: If Iran War Goes Badly, It’s Just Like a Bad Weekend at Mar-a-Lago for Trump

EXCERPT:

ZAKARIA: “The thing to remember, Anderson, it's not even that the Iranians are some strange regime in that regard. This was true in Vietnam. The United States dropped more bombs on North Vietnam than it dropped in all of World War II, many times more on North Vietnam than it dropped in all of World War II. The North Vietnamese did not change their negotiating position. They did not make concessions as a result of it. Because when the two -- when you have two sides, and for one side this conflict is existential, they're going to be the ones for whom the stakes are so high that they'll take the pain. For the Iranian leadership, if they lose this, it could mean regime change, overthrow, they get slaughtered on the streets, they've seen what happened to Assad in Syria, right? For Donald Trump, if this goes badly, it's a bad weekend at Mar-a-Lago.”
