It's now being reported that Trump put out his assassination months ago as a response to any Iranian action that resulted in the death of an American. This would of course continue to destroy the imminent threat narrative.

Embassies were put on alert after the rioting before the Baghdad embassy, but outside of that embassy, none were "hardened" in expectation of an immanent strike.

Is there any evidence that legality issues raised by the Solameini strike are hurting Trump with the base?  (Hannity seems to think Dem concern for international law just another outburst of Trump derangement syndrome. You kill a "terrorist leader" whenever you get the chance. Media and "the Left" can't figure it out.)

If not, then it seems that only factors external to US politics/law could reign in lawless behavior--e.g., fear of war with Iran.
