An analysis published early Monday argues that the credibility President Trump has lost with Iran, US allies, and rival powers cannot be restored by any weapon. Paradoxically, the analysis suggests, this conduct may push him into far larger wars than he planned.

It argues that this pattern of conduct may paradoxically force the administration into larger conflicts than intended.
