Steve Bannon’s backroom role? Secret talks with Trump raise questions about U.S Iran strike strategy

Trump Iran decision delay stirred major buzz after former strategist Steve Bannon met with President Trump at the White House just hours before the announcement. As Trump paused action on the Iran-Israel conflict for two weeks, Bannon’s message urging caution added fuel to the MAGA debate. He advised Trump to explore alternatives before any military strike on Iran’s Fordo facility. The move reflects ongoing division inside the MAGA base, with some pushing diplomacy while others demand force. Trump’s unpredictability, now backed by Bannon’s counsel, signals a strategic wait-and-watch on U.S. involvement in the tense Middle East standoff.
