Apparently, he just released that statement to them. I know Pakistan is trying to get the two parties to agree to a two week deadline as well.

It makes no sense whatsoever for anyone to oppose a crazy thing that Trump says he's going to do and then call him a chicken when he doesn't do it. It's like they're trying to goad him into doing the very thing they thought was crazy. Which is crazy.

It reminds me of what happened with Biden and Afghanistan. Most people wanted us out of Afghanistan. Biden got us out, saving countless American lives and tons of US treasure. He did a bold, good thing, and he got nothing but grief.

Our media plays to a bunch of third graders. It's easy for them, because most of them think like third graders.

Trump says something crazy? The third graders mock him when he doesn't do it.

Biden does something bold and good? The third graders mock him when he does it.

Somebody, gasp, changes their mind on an issue? The third graders mock him or her for flip-flopping.
