Trump’s vanity makes him think he can “make a deal” with anyone and come out on top. You can’t make a deal with Iran.

In that part of the world there are only two modes for people like the Iranian despots: Fear of destruction or go on the attack.You can choose which but those are your choices. The… Read more »
I agree in theory that Trump should have gone to Congress for a war declaration, but I think TDS would have stopped it.

Please tell me how you can possibly sit at a bargaining table and expect any durable accord to come from that?!?!
True but if you know that you can manipulate them. There were riots at the ayatollahs funeral because some there were was talking to Trump and others did not get Taqiyya. Second cousin marriages does have an effect on IQ. You just have to know when to lie back. Trump’s really good at that.
