Ignore VP blame narratives and track actual Iran policy outcomes: what commitments were made, what verification mechanisms exist, and whether Congress is being consulted on any agreements.
This is a classic distraction play with zero constitutional harm but high strategic value. The 'positioning Vance as fall guy' narrative creates media-friendly blame theater precisely when multiple Iran-related events (war deal announcement, nuclear talks delay, Hormuz claims) are occurring. The coverage-to-governance ratio is extreme: no actual policy change, just narrative framing about who gets blamed.
