An analysis of President Trump’s public statements over the first 100 days following the start of conflict in Iran reveals inconsistencies in his messaging. The analysis, conducted by *Le Monde*, indicates a pattern of fluctuating rhetoric regarding the war. These shifts suggest underlying strategic hesitations and a degree of improvisation in the administration’s approach. Trump’s comments, made across numerous public appearances since February 28th, demonstrate a lack of a consistently articulated policy. The discrepancies highlight potential internal debate within the administration regarding the conflict’s objectives and duration. This inconsistent communication raises questions about the predictability of U.S. policy towards Iran. The findings suggest a reactive, rather than proactive, strategy is currently being employed.
