On the other hand, what the U.S. president calls a “lovely stay” in the Gulf is so unpopular with American voters that he may quit without restoring the free flow of tankers. Trump said on Tuesday he will finish the war in two to three weeks even if there is no deal
I doubt that that’s because Trump is concerned about the popularity so much as that if he doesn’t get an AUMF from Congress, that’s about how much time he has left.

Trump says 2 weeks you can interpret that as forever or never. It’s a well documented Trumpism.
If Trump was an old school italian mafia guy, his nickname could be Donnie Two Weeks.
It’s not just the reality of Iran being able to do it. Iran also has huge reconstruction costs due to the bombing campaign.
