wars aren't won with politeness and pleasantries, they are won by whoever has the guts to destroy and murder first The conflict with the Houthis isn't "war", unless we broadly define all armed conflict as "war." It's ridiculous to reduce this to a "guts" issue. Biden and Trump won't be manning the front lines, so guts on their part doesn't play into it. (Or maybe we should just do the ultimate, most gutsy thing ever by your logic and start nuking multiple countries) War on the Houthis would require invading Yemen which, in the understatement of the century, would have some pretty serious and wide-ranging consequences. It would also likely play into Iran and/or Russia's hands as this would distract the US from other matters and likely galvanize Middle Eastern opposition to the US. To say nothing of the money spent and lives lost. I have not heard voices from either side of the aisle feeling that this would be remotely worth the cost.
