President Trump Says It Is Getting Harder To Want To Negotiate With Iran



Reuters: Trump says it is getting harder for him to want to negotiate with Iran

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that it is getting harder for him to want to make a deal with Iran and said the situation could go either way very easily.

Trump made the comments to reporters at the White House amid heightened tensions between Tehran and Western powers. Iran said earlier on Monday it had captured 17 U.S. spies and sentenced some to death, but Trump denied the reports.

The United States withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, and reimposed sanctions on the country in May 2018. Trump said the agreement did not go far enough.

I really like that about Trump. He talks tough, but barely ever goes for a war-like option. Only time I can remember is when he (probably) gave the OK to take out the 200 Russian troops that stormed a US base about 1-2years ago..

Did you expect him to go to war with Iran because they are tough to talk to?

Anytime a Republican president goes to war, Democrats are prepared top put their sturmtruppen on the streets of America.

You have to make a good case to the American people and that buys you am little bit of time before Democrats put their brownshirts out on the streets in full force anyways.

"Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002"

"Passed the House on Oct. 10, 2002 (296 - 133)"

Democrats voted for it.

Then they called out their NGOs and thugs.

"ANSWER characterizes itself as anti-imperialist, and its steering committee consists of socialists, communists, civil rights advocates, and left-wing or progressive organizations from the Muslim, Arab, Palestinian, Filipino, Haitian, and Latin American communities. Many of ANSWER's lead organizers had ties to the International Action Center and Workers World Party..."

You need to go to remedial American history 99.

Red Summer of shame: How hundreds of black Americans were shot, lynched or beaten to death by white mobs rampaging across the country in 1919

WW1 won by Woodrow Wilson a known racist, who got many African America s a case of dead?

The President Wilson?

The President, who premiered racists films (Birth of a Nation) at the White House?

The President Wilson?

WW1 where Wilson piled on, when it would have been best if they had had a negotiated settlement? With such a settlement there would have been no WW2.

Roosevelt prolonged WW2 with his North Africa Invasion. Some leader.

Then the sick, weak leader, FDR, gave away 1/2 of Europe to the tender mercies of Stalin.


PS Linburg's name ins actually spelled Lindbergh.

Wilson (mostly his wife) was indeed a racist. that is here not the issue.
We are talking about WWI. Now had we not entered that war what would the world be like? mere speculation, the sort of thing anon is doing. We entered. We stopped the Germans with our allies. And it was a Dem leading the nation and conservatives who did not want us to get involved. So too the conservatives did not want us to be involved in WWII. The attack on Pearl Harbor got us in. And yes. FDR in charge. And speculate all you want, but a Dem in charge when we entered and a Dem in charge when we developed the Atomic bomb and a Dem involved when we won

"Wilson (mostly his wife) was indeed a racist."

That is known as an apologia at best and an outright lie at worst.

"Several historians have spotlighted consistent examples in the public record of Wilson's overtly racist policies and political appointments, such as segregationists he placed in his Cabinet.

The only way you can argue that Wilson did anything significant in WW1 is that without the Americans, the Germans would have broke through on the Western Front in 1917 or 1918. From everything you have posted in the past, you are not qualified to answer such a question

One can argue that American intervention resulted in a harsh treaty resulted in WW2 instead of a better treaty. Everything I studied is that many nations on both sides and the stupid citizenry wanted to go to war in 1914. 6 months later the citizenry of every country was not so much interested in war.

My argument was not that FDR was in charge, My argument is that he was incompetent as commander in chief. If you take 33% longer than you should, then you are a fuck up.

FDR was a fuck-up just like he was in economics. FDR had the recession within the depression in 1937/1938. Now that is unique . It is amazing. Only a world class fuck up could do that.

FDR won the war, with of course Truman. that is fact. all your bullshit does not count. Hitler lost; Axis won. Fact.
FDR took us out of The Great Depression. that is fact. all your arguments are meaningless. Depression and Recession (Bush) under GOP; back to health: Democrats...FACT

Trump sued the House Ways and Means Committee and the New York state officials to block his state tax returns from being turned over; the Trump administration proposed ending food stamp benefits for 3.1 million people; Trump is on track to add another $1 trillion dollars to the national deficit this year; more than 180 human rights groups and 22 senators demanded that the Trump administration's new Commission on Unalienable Rights be abolished; and FBI Director Christopher Wray said Russia is "absolutely intent" on interfering in the 2020 presidential election.

When generals poorly plans a battle and in the execution they lose 15% pr more of their soldiers, they are relieved. That is the usual rule of thumb.

I guess there is not one for Democrat CINCs.

Really!?!?! Having your usual trouble with facts again I see.

Axis lost.

Winning with excessive casualties when winning with much fewer casualties could have been had is the point.

I assume that you don't care if the war ended in 1944 or 1945. Heck the later it ended the more aggrieved you can be and the bigger victim you can be. Victim hood of course is the currency of the Democrat Party.
