Yeah right, Trump will hear Bismarck and think breakfast, not statesmanship
Article after laughable article is wasted in this country saying "Trump should" this and "Trump should" that, when all they are doing is trying to make a purse out of a sow's ear.
The number of these is legion because everyone can sense that when it comes to Trump, there is no there there. He is an empty vessel into which every Tom, Dick, and Harry pours his most fanciful thoughts and wishes in a futile attempt to steer the man in what each thinks is the right direction.
Trump is a POS, he's describing what Putin does routinely to Ukraine and for which he never lifts a finger to complain to or sanction Russia
Israel meanwhile sends evacuation warnings ahead of strikes.
It's a giant con: They signed a nothingburger with Iran, that's why they're not showing it to us
It is another desperate ploy to jawbone oil prices down in a world hurtling toward tank bottom.
Meanwhile, why did Vance have to sign?
Is Trump on his last legs?
And we're still dealing with Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf? I thought Trump said all this took extra time because they were trying to find a more moderate faction?
It's all BS, MS, Piledhigh and Deep.
... “Both
camps know exactly what is at stake,” said one industry official who
frequently interacts with the administration. “The industry folks are
intent on making sure that if the worm turns, the White House does not
point fingers that the industry did not do enough.”
“Everyone everywhere fully appreciates that the standoff cannot go on for another 30-45 days without the political calculations changing,” the official said.
“The White House knows and understands the severity of the potential situation. … They are politically constricted from saying that publicly.” ...
... Both President Trump and Vice President Vance electronically signed a memorandum of understanding with Iran on Sunday, while Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, speaker of the Iranian Parliament, signed for the Iranian side, senior U.S. officials said Monday. ...
Vice President Vance acknowledged that the preliminary U.S.-Iran memorandum is only "about a page and a half" and described it as a "very general document. ...what the MOU does is set up a framework ..."
Trump is a terrible judge of character. Ghalibaf is an IRGC fundamentalist.
