I remain somewhat agnostic about how much Trump is a genuine narcissist and how much it is a facade. But he didn't do this to look strong, or at least that is not the sole reason, because he now looks weak to his anti-war base. Like Netanyahu's poodle. Iran had not challenged the US directly so he needn't do anything. Either decision can be spun as strong or weak.
