"Iran’s objective is to make sure the US & Israel understand that war with Iran isn’t easy”.

"The US-Israel war on Iran has shown the limits of military force. The US has no other option but to pursue a diplomatic solution with Iran."

"Let me start at the beginning of today’s Trump social media spiral, which kicked off around 3 in the morning. Trump was up in the dead of night reposting a random MAGA account asking 'What will happen next?' with a question mark. Ok?

Then came the follow-up: a repost of another random account calling for Senator Mark Kelly to be arrested."

Donald Trump’s blend of threats and hubristic commentary, often casually dismissive of Iran, has, as much as the continuation of the US naval blockade of Iranian ports, been a key stumbling block to restarting peace talks between the two countries under Pakistan’s mediation in Islamabad."

‘He talks too much’: how Trump’s erratic commentary is the real block to an Iran deal

US president’s contradictory statements only make Tehran more wary of anything but the most watertight deal

The Guardian

"Donald Trump’s inaccurate or exaggerated claims to reporters about progress in Iran negotiations—such as describing concessions that hadn’t actually been agreed—undermined diplomatic efforts. According to accounts cited by media outlets, even some officials privately acknowledged that these statements damaged trust and complicated talks."

I will never trade my values for access.

The Parnas Perspective

"Trump declared the breakthrough was 'A GREAT AND BRILLIANT DAY FOR THE WORLD!' and asked why media outlets questioning the alleged deal didn’t 'just say, at the right time, JOB WELL DONE, MR. PRESIDENT?'”
