So was the plan that the Iranians would rise up? That the revolutionary guard would fracture and coup? Absolutely...and super dumb to think that would happen.

US needs ground troops, or they give up and it is a disaster for everyone. With Trump it is most likely the later, with him thinking he'll scare the regime into compliance. This is why congress needs involvement.
