    I’m surprised they didn’t just massacre them right in that room before leaving, it’s the kinda thing I expect from America these days.

  2. Just for some perspective…. The previous deal with Iran under the Obama administration took about 3 years to make.

    This was never a serious ceasefire. Just a way to buy time. We’ve sent too many resources there and we’re yolked to a sociopathic country who needs us to die for them while they don’t lift a finger

    For all the talk of deal making, the Trump administration sure sucks shit at making any deals.

    Why are they so bad at playing all the cards I keep hearing they have?

  5. Concepts of a deal are in the works. Expect this to drop before markets open Monday

    Iran: “JD, if you call Donald *right now* and he answers the phone while at UFC — we have a deal.”

    Vance: 😐

    Trump said they already won bigly. Why do they even need to beg and negotiate with the losing side? Just pack up and leave the middle east after such tremendous success.

  8. Delegation: Vance, Kushner, Witkoff.

    With these fellows, this outcome was guaranteed. None of them have any experience in statecraft other than couch humping or brokering realestate.

    Weasels, frankly.

  9. If Iran really wants to troll Trump, they should ask for Obama to be at the negotiations

  10. Ahahahaha ffs.

    Gotta laugh otherwise you’d probably cry.

    Sure everyone is getting rich though.

    I am amazed he couldn’t get a deal reached. Who knew he was bad at this?

  12. Probably showed up with a list of demands instead of actually attempting to negotiate something that would work for all parties. All they know is how to bully others into giving in to their terms

    US after obtaining the 10 point Iranian ceasefire plan in a picture book form, have realized it is not in their favour.

    Didn’t Iran already agree once before not to build nukes and Trump tore that agreement up?

    USA starts a war, talks a lot of shit, then turtles when other countries won’t bail them out. Again

    USA fails again. Unless the goal was to destroy the US and world economy and hand financial leadership to China.

  16. He said one of America’s demands was absolute assurance Iran wouldn’t develop nukes. It’s like buddy, the leader you assassinated had a fatwa in place against nuclear weapons

  17. I also decided to leave the Ferrari dealership after failing to a reach a deal to exchange a 1999 Toyota Camry for the F80

  18. Surprising really, as Trump has already won the war so many times by now. The new leadership even thanked him and begged him for a deal.

  19. After one meeting? Doesn’t sound like much of a negotiation, more like Iran didn’t agree to all of US demands.
