WASHINGTON D.C. — President Donald Trump announced Tuesday he is actively considering a complete “winding down” of the United States’ involvement in Iran, a process he described as “just not thinking about it anymore.” The groundbreaking new policy, dubbed the “Out of Sight, Out of Mind Doctrine” by White House insiders, marks a significant shift from previous administrations’ approaches to complex geopolitical challenges.
“We’ve been doing a lot of stuff over there, a lot of very important stuff, believe me,” Trump stated during an impromptu press briefing on the White House lawn. “But sometimes, you know, you just gotta, like, move on. Bigger fish to fry. Like, what’s for lunch?”
Sources close to the Oval Office indicate the strategy involves a phased withdrawal of attention, beginning with a reduction in daily intelligence briefings, followed by a gradual cessation of all mentions of Iran in public remarks. The final stage, according to one aide, involves “pretending it never happened.”
“This is a truly innovative approach to foreign policy,” commented Dr. Evelyn Reed, a senior fellow at the Institute for Strategic Amnesia. “Instead of costly military interventions or protracted diplomatic negotiations, the President is pioneering a method of conflict resolution through sheer, unadulterated inattention. It’s remarkably low-effort, which, frankly, aligns with many of his other policy initiatives.”
When pressed on whether this strategy would achieve any of the administration’s stated goals for Iran, Trump paused, squinted into the middle distance, and then declared, “Look, we’re going to have the best forgetting. Nobody forgets like us. It’s going to be tremendous.”
The move is expected to save billions in defense spending, primarily by reallocating funds previously earmarked for “paying attention.”
