As Iran situation gets worse, Vance invokes 25th amendment and then pulls out of Iran since he was against it all along. This will allow Republicans to save face. Fresh start going into midterms. It is the only way they dont get slaughtered by the dems.

If he puts boots on the ground there will be casualties. Then the door for leaving is gone. His ego will just escalate.
