Trump warns Israeli PM and Iran - Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Frustrated Trump sends a chilling message to Netanyahu and vows to 'take out' Iran's final untouched nuclear site if deal is not reached "

Lets Get Real:

The Trump Oval does not like to be shown in up public by a friend, specially if that friend is Israel telling him that Iran has been placing its nuclear stockpile in another mountain after Trump bombed Iran last year over the fear of its nuclear stockpile.  The Trump Oval has given peace talks with Iran a chance, its never the last time with Iran, they have talks, shoot at tankers and then have further talks, they are playing Trump for a fool.  The Trump background is real estate and reality TV, he does not understand the Iranian mind set or how to win a WAR.  The President as stated in previous post is listening to his Vice President, J.D Vance, who more concerned about the 2028 race and if he can win the MAGA base and win the General Election.  LBJ made sure his VP kept to the script, he bugged his plane as to know in advance if his VP was about to break with him over the Vietnam War, while that was going on the FBI was bugging the South Vietnam Embassy and discovered that the Nixon Campaign was telling South Vietnam not to go the Paris peace talks.  It would be fair to say that LBJ kept quiet about it, as would cause a constitutional crisis and it would be something that LBJ had over Nixon, the Watergate caper of Nixon trying find out what the Democrats had on the affair, thus the fall of Nixon.

Trump gives peace talks chance with Iran but threatens ACTION if they FAIL - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 4.28pm post the following, " Trump continues threatening Iran if deal is not reached "

Let's Get Real:

Would would Tehran take any notice of Trump and his threats.  The Trump Oval has never followed through with any of its THREATS, Trump is listening to his VP who wants to run in 2028 Presidential cycle, the MAGA faction has an Isolation policy, thank God they were not around in 1940s.  The Afghanistan and Iraq WARS have put off the American voters off from supporting Liberal intervention, JFK or Reagan would have sold the Iran War to the voters, Trump never did, thus a stop and go War in Iran, Trump is weak and thus the US is seen as weak, Trump does not have the time to play games with Iran.

Trump states Iran is taking to long to make a deal - Update

Noted: Just reading Dr. Jill Biden's memoirs, so far informative and moving, have not gotten 2224 and the decision to run for re - election and the disastrous debate with President Trump and Biden being forced out by his Party.

Sky News: Reports in its 12.19pm post the following, " Trump 'Iran has taken too long to negotiate - now it will have to pay the price' " 

Let's Get Real:

Another threat from a TACO President, he makes big threats and does not carry them out.  The Oval likes limited strikes, but nothing big like ground troops to take Iran's nuclear stockpile or dust as called by Trump.  Tehran knows that Trump is delusional and wants out of the WAR he started.  Unfortunately the Tehran Regime can out last Trump and the MAGA movement, another failed Presidency after Biden.

Iran's new offer to the US - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 8.21am post the following, " The US has received a new Iranian proposal through Pakistani mediators - which includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz, but postponing nuclear negotiations  " 

Let's Get Real:

As stated Tehran is playing games, they know that the Oval could not agree to the new plan.  The media and the Democrats would have a field day, it would be another TACO moment, Trump they would say started a WAR of choice but could not win it.  Its a ploy by Tehran, endless talks that go nowhere, Trump has to stand tough even against the MAGA base, and keep his VP on the same script, he wants the nomination in 2028.

US - Iran Talks in Pakistan - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 3.24pm posy the following, " US-Iran talks could be held in next three days - Trump "

Let's Get Real:

Thus the US is paying a weak hand, Trump is desperate for an off ramp, the War is not popular in general with US voters, even the MAGA base is not that solid, Trump did not sell the War before starting the WAR, at least Bush 43 and Tony Blair sold the Iraq War, flawed and wrong information as it was at the time.  The sticking points in the Iran War are Iran's nuclear stockpile and the Strait of Hormuz, both sides have different agendas.

VP Vance to Pakistan for talks with Iran - Update

Fox News: Reports the following in a post, " Vance heading to Pakistan for negotiations about Iran this weekend, White House says "

Let's Get Real:

Thus if the ceasefire survives in till Friday, POTUS is sending his VP to Pakistan for talks with Iran.  The VP is known to have opposed the War with Iran.  The VP wants to run in 2028, the anti war base of MAGA, will want a deal.  The Oval wants any blame for failure to go to Vance, that is the point of VP's to take on unpopular issues, VP Harris had the border, Bush 41 had to deal with Ross Perot when he came to complain to the Reagan White House about the perceived issue that Vietnam was still holding American POW's from the Vietnam War.  President Reagan knew that Bush 41 knew him thus give the negative job of telling Perot that he was wrong to his loyal VP.  The aftershock was that Perot ran against Bush 41 in the 1992 Presidential Election.  The Gipper was wise, any problems send in the VP, thus no political hassle for the Oval.   Thus a major job for Vance and his career ambitions to be POTUS.

Trump wants 200 billion to fight Iran War - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 7.28pm update the following, " Trump confirms he will ask Congress for $200bn to fund war on Iran  "

Let's Get Real:

The Democrats in Congress will have fun with this, they have to be careful that they are not seen as stabbing their soldiers in the back while the US is at war.  This spending request, could be a major fight up to the Mid Terms in November.  The Trump Oval will have to fight those in the MAGA base who oppose any war.  Interesting time ahead for Congress.

Trump's Deadline to Iran - 10 Days and Counting Down - Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Donald Trump warned the US could bomb Iran if a deal isn't reached in the next 10 days "

Let's Get Real:

This is a way out for TRUMP, his deadlines change many times are women change their clothes - A lot.  Trump is a wimp, but he is costing the American Tax Payer a fortune, he has two aircraft carriers in the Middle East by the Weekend, and other US Ships and Subs who can launch cruise missiles.  It would be interesting to see the COST of this vast deployment, all that Trump can look tough.  CNN has stated that Trump has added 5 days to is deadline.  It has become a truism that Trump Always Chickens OUT, the tax payer has to pick up the bill.   If POTUS does not act, he will be seen as WEAK, on the reverse side that non action will go down well with his base.  The MAGA base are tired of long WARS, they see AFGHANISTAN and IRAQ as a failure, and are tired of the US being the World's policeman, and Trump the showman has not stated why the US has to go WAR, he stated in the past that the US had destroyed Iran's nuclear capacity, was that true or false, if FALSE, the Oval should explain WHY, if he wimps out, no one will be afraid of Trump on the World Stage. What an irony!.

US shoots down Iranian drone - Update

CNN: Reports that a Iranian drone that was threatening the Abraham Lincoln aircraft Carrier was shot down by the US.

Lets Get Real:

Events like this have caused wars in the past, Gulf of Tolkien incident in 1964, the shooting down by accident of an Iranian passenger jet in the late 1980's, as the US Fleet was protecting tankers from Iranian attack.  The Iranian theocracy is lucky, any other President would have struck Iran, but Trump is a WIMP, he will let the threat go, as there are planned talks in Turkey between Iran and th US.  The MAGA base does not want the US to be the World's Policeman, that is why Trump is a major WIMP.
