He's trying to show he'll play ball with the warhawks, so there's no need to try and kill him again. Then he'll get in office and solve Iran with some deals instead of troops.
I actually doubt this is what the warhawks want, they want a good long.war to line their pockets.
This sounds like he'd turn Iran into a parking lot which knowing US weaponry, would take a week tops..
Accomplishes two things.
First, since the Secret Service isn't doing their job ("always a possibility") this lays down an assured-destruction doctrine. This stops Iran from trying it even though it's as easy for them as taking candy from baby.
Second the clandestine state wants to kill Trump then blame Iran so they can attack them - two birds with one stone - but like you say they don't want to risk all-out war because glassing the desert would big time disrupt their plans.
