One reason why I believe Trump can't successfully prosecute the situation in Iran. [View all]
War, excursion, etc.
He can't play golf.
Stay with me.
Golf is a sport that requires a keen mind and strategy. Trump lacks both.
You play it on terrain with hills, sand traps, "the rough", trees, water traps, etc. Each course is different. You just don't hit the ball and hope for the best. You even need a caddy to advise you of the next shot.
How do I equate golf with prosecuting a war? Trump cheats at golf. He doesn't rely on his own strategy. He knows enough to move his ball for a better vantage point. But all in all, he can't play from Hole 1 to Hole 18 without cheating and then lies to himself (and everyone else) that he's Arnold Palmer.
Golfing is regarded as a gentlemen's game. A lot of mathematics, logic, psychology, and philosophy associated with it. Trump doesn't want to go through all that rigmarole when he thinks he can get the same result by cheating.
You can't cheat at war. It can be real and abstract simultaneously. People die as a result of your choices.
I'm not saying good golfers can run a war. But it couldn't hurt.
