He is nuts.
Iran denies it.
He could be lying just to fuck with the market.

(60,949 posts)and assumed they did and, of course, Iran agreed to the two best diplomats/real estate con men and ( in Kushner's case slum lord) ever.
It is shocking that these two men didn't bother using any long term diplomats or experts.

(102,512 posts)He was talking to was him as 45. So you've got -47 taking advice from himself as -45.
Remember, he only listens to himself.
Which means that many of his conversations are with the voices in his head,

(50 posts)A similar pattern was observed in oil markets. West Texas Intermediate May futures also saw a noticeable pickup in trading activity at roughly the same time, with a distinct volume spike interrupting otherwise quiet conditions.
Roughly 15 minutes later, at 7:05 a.m., Trump said on Truth Social that the U.S. and Iran had held talks and that he was halting planned strikes on Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure. That announcement prompted an instant rally in risk assets, with S&P 500 futures soaring more than 2.5% before the opening bell. West Texas Intermediate futures dropped nearly 6% following the announcement.
