Surely it will happen this time right? Right?

All jokes aside I fully support 47 on this but I don't know why he feels the need to try and negotiate with them? They are not interested. Blockade. Bomb.....and a LONG time later Bargain.

He knows the IRGC and their Deep State short-hair puppets aren't capable of negotiating in good faith, but he must demonstrate to anyone who is willing to pay attention that he has gone above and beyond to give them every available opportunity to do the right thing.

That they flatly refuse to do so will be to their own detriment, and everyone on the wOrLd sTaGe can get fricked & stay fricked.

I doubt if Trump truly believes there can be an actual sustained agreement. I think Trump is trying to communicate to Iran that he can be just as belligerent and unpredictable as their crazy butts. They've chanted "death to America!" for a generation, so now he more or less is saying, "Death to Iran!" followed by an olive branch. Does Trump really mean any of it? I don't even think he knows.

It has been far too easy for far too long for our nation's enemies to know exactly what we're going to do (or not do) and when we're going to do it.

It is entirely predictable that Trump won't do anything, and Iran knows it. They are cooking him and the entire country. People supporting him regardless of his failures is embarrassing.

He has screwed this up.

After 45 years of doing nothing in Iran, our military has carried out 13,000 military strikes there since early April.

Maybe. But the fact that he's blown up a lot of stuff recently makes it harder to outright dismiss the threats that he will blow up more stuff.

Perhaps the unspoken truth is that the US has been warned that if we hit the power plants there, their sleeper cells will hit the power plants/electrical infrastructure here. It is impossible to prevent mass blackouts for long periods of time because it's impossible to protect them.

If I had to pick countries who are fighting the deep state and globalists, Iran would be top three.

I just wish Trump wouldn’t be so vocal about the deals, even though nothing ever holds up. When he brags about how great a deal it is to the world- It doesn’t help his cause.

The only thing they're fighting against is their forced removal as a puppet regime of the globalist order.

The IRGC is a proxy army of the established deep state network and for almost half a century has served their purpose to bake in a significant fear tax into the global petroleum market as well as lording over the Strait of Hormuz like a pirate armada.

Trump is using his playbook.

Threaten something big.
Negotiate.
Next step, do something big.
Negotiate.
Threaten something bigger.
Negotiate.
Do something bigger.
Negotiate.

The mass media (and dems) see him negotiating, and they coined this phrase TACO.
What they dont realize is that TACO is the FAFO part of the negotiation.
The next step is an escalation.

I doubt history will notice, but Trump doesnt want escalation. It is not the objective. The opposite is.
But you negotiate through strength.

But just like sitting at the casino, Trump needs a long enough leash to finish this his way.
The only good war is a successful one.

I hope we can see this through quickly
