"President Trump made the case for his deal with Iran during an hour-long press conference Wednesday, while seeming to lower his own bar for success and warning he could bomb Iran again if nuclear talks fail.
The big picture: For two months, Trump has been seeking a deal to end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and stabilize global energy markets. This deal should achieve that. But some of Trump's critics argue that making concessions just to return to status quo ante shows the war itself was a costly mistake.
Reality check: Before and soon after the war began, Trump laid out highly ambitious parameters for any successful resolution with Iran."
