There's not a win condition, it's win-win. Or maybe win-win-win.

We demonstrated that America can completely destroy a modern military with advanced Russian and Chinese defenses.

We tilted the global economics in our favor, where every dollar we were spending more in gas I'd say was two dollars into the country (probably an underestimate..).

We've repositioned other ME countries toward US and against Iran, and will be selling more weapons to them.

And Trump has re-established madman status giving the US much more negotiating power.

...it's not only wins, for instance we lost a couple planes, but I'll let others make that case.

edit: oh no one-line rage replies, truth really hit a nerve
