A real danger is he does something big and wildly stupid, to either try and regain momentum or to dead-cat the Iran disaster off the news.
There is a real danger now that Trump will do something nuclear level stupid, maybe with actual nukes.
A grown up politician who got themselves this deep into a mess would push back from the table and quit or make their peace with just coasting into electoral oblivion at the next election and not compound things.

@CrypticMirror @Kathmandu @Jer @isaackuo I'm actually kind of mystified as to why Trump hasn't *already* ordered a tactical nuclear strike somewhere. He seems to be Jonesing for one.
