President Donald Trumps conflicting signals over the future of the war in Iran have spurred deepening frustration among GOP lawmakers and allies who fear the administration still lacks a clear endgame after four weeks of fighting.
Trump over the last several days has simultaneously expressed a desire for peace and a willingness to plunge the US into a new and more dangerous phase of the war.
He has insisted that Iran is eager to negotiate a truce while also ordering thousands more troops to the region over the coming days and weeks.
And as Trump nears his self-imposed deadline for a war he insists is ahead of schedule and effectively won, he has repeatedly declined to specify what would constitute a victory leaving all but his closest advisers largely in the dark.
