Not true. There is a third option. Trump "loses" the war but simply doesn't admit it. He claims the U.S. won the war. Heck, he's already announced that we've won several times already.
Trump The Conqueror is, again, demanding the NATO countries fight his war for him. What if the NATO countries say "OK, only if we have a voice in the peace process". If Trump the God says "OK", everyone else embraces the JCPOA, or the offer Iran put on the table in Oman in February, and makes their peace with Iran. If Trump refuses, than he becomes the sole obstacle to peace.
Thing is, Trump doesn't want the Strait open.
Iran made a good offer, in February. Trump attacked.
When Israel and Lebanon announced a cease fire, Iran declared the Strait open. But Trump said his blockade stays, so Iran closed the Strait again.
"Bibi" wants the Iranian regime crushed and the country tipped into civil war. So no peace proposal from Iran has any chance, including the one that is on the wire this morning.

Meanwhile, the above article reports the Trump regime is insisting this is not, currently, a "war".
Under the 1973 law, a president must withdraw troops within 60 days of notifying Congress of their deployment, unless lawmakers authorize the military action. Congress has not done so.
An administration official said that the absence of direct fire between U.S. forces and Iran since a ceasefire was first agreed to on April 7 means the 60-day clock no longer applies.
“For War Powers Resolution purposes, the hostilities that began on Saturday, February 28, have terminated,” an administration official told MS Now.
