President Trump is negotiating with Iran from a position of leverage that no American president has ever held. The U.S. and Israel have shattered the regime’s enrichment capabilities, destroyed key nuclear weapons facilities, decimated its defense industrial base, killed an experienced generation of senior military commanders, intelligence chiefs, and nuclear weapons scientists, and severely degraded its medium-range and intercontinental ballistic missile programs and capabilities that were on a deadly trajectory. The regime’s terror proxy network has been mauled across the region. Its economy is collapsing under the weight of war, sanctions, corruption, and isolation.
With that kind of leverage, Trump has a real opportunity to secure a strong deal — one that dismantles Iran’s pathways to the bomb rather than temporarily managing them and constrains the regime’s ability to reconstitute its defense and missile programs. Then he needs to pivot to maximum support for the Iranian people to help them reclaim their country from a failed, bankrupt, brutal regime.
