<\/video>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n [Anchor] President Donald Trump\u2019s vow that \u201cit would be over in 3\u20134 weeks\u201d has not held up. The conflict has entered its eighth week with no diplomatic off-ramp, and as the legal deadline approaches, Trump is under mounting pressure. This is Eun-nae Kang reporting. [Reporter] \u300cDonald Trump \/ President of the United States (on the 9th of last month)\u300d \\”Many great operations are underway, and once they finish we’ll have a much safer world. The war will end quite quickly.\\” Yet now, in week eight, there is still no diplomatic exit. The U.S. points to unrest inside Iran, while Tehran blames a U.S. maritime blockade. Both sides remain locked in a tense standoff. Even conservative outlets that once supported Trump have grown cool. After The Wall Street Journal suggested Iran was taking advantage of Trump, the president lashed out, calling the paper \\”political trash\\” not worth reading. Former adviser John Bolton has also weighed in, arguing Trump has signaled repeatedly that he wants out of the conflict, effectively ceding the negotiating initiative to Iran. Time may be the administration\u2019s biggest problem. Under the War Powers Resolution, the president can conduct military operations without congressional approval for up to 60 days. With the March 2 notification to Congress as the start point, that clock runs out on May 1. Some raise the possibility the administration could try to skirt the deadline by arguing, as in past cases, that the situation does not amount to a full-scale war and therefore requires no new authorization. But Republicans in Congress do not appear uniformly supportive of that approach. \u300cJosh Hawley \/ Republican senator from Missouri (on the 15th)\u300d \\”We are currently within the 60-day window. My hope is that this conflict ends before the 60 days run out.\\” Since announcing an extension of the cease-fire, Trump has largely stayed away from direct commentary on the Iran fight and has focused his social media on domestic political messaging. Stalled negotiations, cooling public sentiment and a looming legal deadline have tightened the squeeze around a president who once promised a quick resolution.
