Trump's failure in Iran has been laid bare - and it's about to get worse

[C_Clayton_Jones]

‘It has been a shocker of a week for the president: the Easter weekend F-bomb-laden post, the genocidal promise a few days later to wipe out a “whole civilisation” – only to be supplanted by a ceasefire – so poorly cobbled together – that Donald Trump didn’t even seem to know what it meant.

Having got himself firmly impaled on a hook, he had to find a way to get himself off it.

So when the Pakistani prime minister suggested a two-week ceasefire, Trump leapt at it. There would be two weeks in which the Israeli and US bombing would stop, in return for Iran reopening the vital shipping lane of the Strait of Hormuz.

What we are seeing is “The Art of the Deal – Iranian style”. Improbable as it may sound, having taken one hell of a military beating, Iran feels as though it is on top.’

Trump’s failure in Iran has been laid bare – and could get much worse

The president is cobbling together a ceasefire he doesn’t seem to understand and somehow making the brutal Iranian regime look positively charismatic while they choke the global economy, Jon Sopel writes

And Iran is on top – having taken advantage of Trump’s incompetence and stupidity.

The Strait of Hormuz remains essentially closed, gas prices remain high, and Trump has failed to realize any of the imaginary goals of his unwarranted, failed, illegal war.

Pause Celia ,
Could Deep State be that naive?
Trumpfy is nowhere near as bright as some believe , yet I believe him to be very Savvy and Instinctive .

Could he really have blundered so badly and this early ?

I retain an open mind but actually can see no way he can now "win" other than by sheer might and targeting civilian bombing-- which would never be admitted .
So prove me wrong Trumpfy , or watch America go officially bankrupt and the world sink badly backwards , even for a few years .
Plus Israel will really go under and America's reputation will stink for at least a generation .
Zero Trust and Respect .
imho
