Trump announces the on again, off again, on again, off again peace talks with Iran are on again.

This reminds me of the Saturday Night Live skit with Chevy Chase about Generalissimo Francisco’s illness and subsequent death.

I feel sorry for the people responsible for changing the price at the gas stations.

… we open the box. Now where did we leave that damn box?! I guess we’re stuck in the superposition of forever war peace, or peace war. All I know is innocent people will continue to die.

He is incapable of accepting any conditions Iran puts forward. It would be admitting defeat. It will either be this, or his only other option is putting boots on the ground, which is politically horrible for Republicans and will not happen before mid terms. Everyone may as well get used to this game of Truth Social lying ping pong because it is going to go on for a long time. Expect at least 2 lies a week about Iran.

Iran will never, EVER give up what they've gained by this folly.

They are going to string out the humiltation to Trump and America for as loooooong as they can.
