The White House needs to decide on a message and stick to it, stop flip flopping every day

Washington — In less than 48 hours this weekend, President Trump went from saying Iran has "agreed to everything," including working with the U.S. to remove its enriched uranium, to warning that if Iran doesn't sign a U.S.-backed deal, the "whole country is getting blown up."
The president's rapid shifts in messaging, expressed in phone calls with individual reporters and on Truth Social, come as the two-week ceasefire in the war with Iran enters its final days, and as the state of negotiations with Iran is uncertain.
The president has also shared contradictory statements about negotiations, telling the New York Post on Monday morning that the U.S. delegation, including Vice President JD Vance, would arrive in Islamabad Monday night. But after the president said that, a White House official said the U.S. delegation had not left yet, but rather, "plans to travel to Islamabad soon," without a date given. Iran said Monday that it has no current plans to return to peace talks.

Do you not think that Iran is flip flopping daily on what they are saying to us?
They've only been doing it for 50 years.

Why would they stop? His people are getting rich off the flip flopping.

Mr. President is doing everything right.
The days of holding cards open are over.
That's the only way to deal with pathological liars!

How many NYT Best Sellers have you written on deal negotiations?

Trump has always been his own press secretary and it tends to frustrate the people who work in comms because they’re constantly having to correct themselves or do clean up when Trump goes off on a tangent. He’s been a little more restrained this term, probably because he’s older and a little more mellowed.

Idk maybe look at the futures market trading right before he sends out one of his “Truths”

When you give props to Trump just once, you'll be taken somewhat seriously.
Until then, you're just a mere shill.

Yes, of course. But Trump should have expected that and filtered all that bullshite. At least if his goal was communicating to the American people. If his goal was confusion to the various Iranian factions then he’s doing it well.

All part of negotiations. Trump has a style all his own.

We're talking about Iran or US politicians?

The simplest reason is usually the truth, except on the Poli board.

Do you really believe that’s how insider trading works?

You’ve made an error there hot shot. Biden flip flopped every day and you dumb enough to sleep in the basement with him where you belonged.
