The Iran war exposed Trump's economic vulnerability, and the blockade of the strait caused a sudden increase in domestic pressure in the United States.

After seven weeks of ongoing conflict in Iran, the Iranian regime has not been completely overthrown, nor has it fully accepted all of the conditions set by President Trump. However, this war has sharply exposed a core weakness of Trump's administration, which is his limited ability to withstand domestic economic pressures. Brett Bruen, former foreign policy advisor to the Obama administration and current head of the strategic consulting firm Global Situation Room, said, "Trump is strongly feeling the economic pressure, which is his Achilles heel in this war." Trump abruptly shifted from large-scale airstrikes to diplomatic efforts on April 8, mainly due to financial market fluctuations and pressure from some supporters of the "Make America Great Again" movement. American farmers, who are a key support base for Trump, suffered economic losses due to interruptions in fertilizer transportation; at the same time, skyrocketing fuel prices led to an increase in airline ticket prices, further exacerbating domestic dissatisfaction.
