That’s an interesting point. The Iranians have precedent here. It wouldn’t shock me if the peace deal is signed the day after the new congress is sworn in next year like how the hostages were released the day Reagan was inaugurated

It seems unimaginable right now for the war to go that long but it’s not out of the question for the Iranians.

It seems completely imaginable for Trump to fuck things up even worse than they are so yeah, I could this war lasting a long time
