This doesn't appear to be going well, already.

That's because you are listening to liberal/left leaning sources. They dont want you to think anything connected to Trump is working.

From Facebook:

Nobody wanted this conflict. Not one person who understands what war costs wanted this. But the people asking when things go back to normal are asking the right question about the wrong timeline. This didn't start a month ago. It started in 1979. We just finally showed up to it.
Left alone, Iran was not quietly going into the good night. They were not going to stop arming the groups that walked into Israel and slaughtered innocent families at a music festival. They weren't going to stop until every tunnel was sealed, every launcher was buried, every ally we have was in range, and the fortification was done.
And then we were supposed to believe they would politely wave our ships through.
That was never the deal. Everybody in that room knew it.
Every administration from both parties declared them the number one enemy of the United States. They have told us who they are. Loudly. Repeatedly. For 45 years. They wish us harm. They wish our allies harm. They wish your way of life harm.
Eight presidents heard that and chose later.
There is no more later.
The can is gone. There's no road left to kick it down.
By acting now we may have put off the unimaginable. That's not a comfortable thing to say. It's not supposed to be. But it's the only honest answer to the people who want to know when things go back to normal.
They don't go back. They go forward. The only question is whether we chose the moment or the moment chose us.
Nobody gets to pick the timing of history. But somebody always has to answer it.

this war started a few weeks ago

Making a stupid comment like this makes you not worthy to even debate with.
