The extreme defense

The Result

Supporters might argue that the recent satellite imagery showing construction near Iran's missile bases is a testament to the effectiveness of international pressure and sanctions. The defense submits that this construction is a sign of Iran's desperation, not strength, as they scramble to bolster their defenses amid ongoing scrutiny.

What Trump Did

The defense might suggest that during Trump's presidency, a strong stance was taken against Iran, which has led to increased vigilance and monitoring of their activities.

Why Supporters Credit Him

Supporters might argue that the visible construction is a direct result of the pressure applied by the previous administration, which has kept Iran on its toes.

The Supporting Record

The defense admits that while the satellite images show new buildings, they also indicate that Iran is reacting to the international community's concerns, showcasing their vulnerability.

The Limitation or Competing Explanation

However, the defense might argue that this construction does not necessarily indicate an imminent threat but rather a defensive posture in response to perceived aggression from the West.

Verdict

If this is Trump's fault, his supporters will gladly let him take the blame.
