WSJ: The White House Is Now At A Loss As To What To Do About Iran

Following the Republicans' defeat in the congressional elections.

The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has yet to determine what steps to take regarding Iran following the congressional midterm elections. Some are calling on him to resume strikes, while others are urging him to scale back the operation.

This is reported by The Wall Street Journal.

According to sources, some administration officials are now pushing Trump to launch new strikes against Iran and then seek peace in order to end the war before his presidential term expires.

Other officials believe Trump should accept the losses and wind down the military operation. WSJ sources say this situation exposes an increasingly deep rift within the administration over the war, against the backdrop of the Republicans’ defeat in the midterm elections.

The publication also notes that yesterday, November 4, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance cited the war with Iran as the reason for the Republicans’ crushing defeat https://charter97.org/ru/news/2026/11/5/704394/).

The WSJ added that Vance’s accusation that Trump’s war was responsible for the disastrous election results represents a rare instance of him distancing himself from the president to whom he owes his political career.

Furthermore, it shows just how much Vance has been opposed to the war from the very beginning, despite his repeated public statements in its defense.
