I agree with @anderspuck: Trump has placed himself in an impossible situation with his Iran war.
Anders has some interesting points about the Hormuz Strait conundrum:

Why is it so difficult to open the Strait of Hormuz?
It will be dangerous to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and Trump is visibly frustrated about the situation. He can't end the war before the strait is opened, a...Anders Puck Nielsen (YouTube)

in reply to Randahl Fink • • •The problem is that the only way Trump will be responding is by further escalation. He doesn't know anything else.
He will intensify the air campaign and target more civilian infrastructure. If he conducts ground operations, those will be rather small (only easy targets).
What makes me angry: the development was totally obvious for anyone with two brain cells to rub together.
But his "yes men" gave Trump the impression that he could facilitate a regime change by killing the current leaders.

Allowing redudancy does not show errors now though...
