This is just another one of Trump’s 20 personalities to fit another narrative that he created.


No matter what happens, Trump will frame it as us being fine with it because anything else would give Iran complete control over negotiations.

It is the same reason Iran will never let on that our blockade is hurting them.

That's just common sense.

If the SOH is still blocked in July get ready for a real spike in oil prices because world inventories will be dangerously low.



There is no semblance of a plan to any of this. Apparently all it takes is for Trump to call Hezbollah to stop fighting (and to take them at their word they'll show restraint with Israel). There doesn't appear to be any broader strategic view here. It's all very day to day with behavior seemingly influenced by the news cycle. We all assume there's a bigger plan with these types of situations but it really doesn't appear that way.

Well if that’s true then you helped prove my point. Not what Trump & Co were expecting.

This administration is clueless and totally lost. They have no idea what they're doing or what to do next.

We clearly aren't talking to anyone who actually makes and enforces decisions on any front of this mess. They're making Donald look like a fool every time he makes a definitive statement.

Some of you totally mimic some of my clients during negotiations. Nervous as a cat over words instead of actions.

The ports of Iran are closed. Until Trump lets up on that, some of yall need to chill out.

Ok, WTF and


There are so many different reports true and false about is being said by Iran and probably from different regimes in Iran that makes it impossible to understand what is really going on.

No, he said that would only happen if they agreed to his terms with the deal. Same thing with removing the blockade.

You appear to be wrong. Apparently, he did and did so without any qualifications.

I would also add some of you don’t understand Trump’s style of negotiations or negotiations in general for that matter.

Apparently, Trump doesn't understand his style either. Or is it his style of negotiations to get rejected completely ad nauseam?
