    Does no one else see this shit? This is basically desperation. Literally begging for an agreement. On top of that, he’s got a raging hard-on in the hopes that a deal is signed on his birthday - so that it actually means something.

    Weak. But go on - let’s talk about Obama and his tan suit or Biden and his ice cream.

      It’s possible.

      They know DonOLD is in over his head and that he’s deeply worried about his numbers and that there is a mid-term quickly approaching.

      Of course, they also know he’s probably trying to steal that election, but it seems they have realized a lot about the United States in the past few months and they seem to hold the cards here. They have DonOLD by his shriveled little raisins.

      Maybe, but I think they may have a really hard time trusting anything he says or anything the US puts on paper.

      Let’s say he somehow gets a deal that is similar to the JCPOA, who is to say in 3 or 4 years a new president wont pull out of the deal and restart attacks on them. Hell Trump might do it again in 4 months because fuck you thats why. Iran is in both a good and bad place it feels like. The Strait is their only leverage right now, and we keep hearing about warnings on gas coming soon. Maybe they play that and if gas finally does spike they would have Trump over a barrell even more.

      Like if I were Iran I wouldnt sign a fucking thing without strong promises from a lot of other places that say of the US strikes them again or pulls out of the deal without sufficient reasoning then they would suffer some penalty trade wise or something.

        Or maybe they’re just stalling because they believe he’s going to die soon. Is Vance just as bad as Trump? Probably. But, he also is able to remember what happened 5 minutes ago, and his foreign policy isn’t dictated by how full his diaper is. Wouldn’t surprise me at all if foreign intelligence agencies know a helluva lot more than we do regarding the state of Trump’s health.

    How long could it possibly take to review a document from the trump admin? It’s probably 2 pages of 24 point font with pictures and no vocabulary above a 3rd grade reading level.

      You know things are getting worse when the headline is super politically correct. Iran has been asking basically the same thing for months. There’s nothing to review.
