trump slightly more because he should have said no.

Obviously, minimal planning beyond strike one was planned out in advance given that no one can control or anticipate trump.

However,now that the war is in full force, trump has lost all real control. He can't stop Israel from continuing now that they have knocked out so much of Iran's leadership and sophisticated weapons and he can't afford to end our participation without major hits to his exceedingly limited credibility.

So yeah, trump was played, but he chose to in spite of our top military generals most certainly advising against it... IF they were ever consulted rather than merely ordered to do it.

I get where you are coming from, absolutely, but I will not excuse trump's full cooperation in it whether he understood he was being played or not.
