President Donald Trump underwent a significant shift in his stance on Iran's nuclear program, moving from suggesting a deal was 'achievable' to urging Tehran's residents to evacuate. This dramatic change occurred as Trump cut short his attendance at the G7 summit, heading back to Washington for urgent discussions with his national security team.

Trump expressed frustration with Iran's leadership for not reaching an agreement and called for a complete dismantlement of Tehran's nuclear ambitions. The president seems to be less interested in dialogue, emphasizing a more confrontational posture as tensions rise between Israel and Iran. Proponents of Trump's policies argue that further U.S. involvement would undermine his promise to avoid entanglements in severe conflicts.

Meanwhile, the legality of Trump's use of military resources is under scrutiny as a federal appeals court in San Francisco reviews the deployment of National Guard troops during recent protests in Los Angeles. Trump's strategic decisions appear tied to both political ambitions and international diplomacy pressures, as he balances the tumultuous geopolitical landscape.
