Trump says Iran has agreed to not have a nuclear weapon

8. The thing that would be shocking would be him sucking up the loss.

I don't see him making a "deal" within the next 9 or 10 months.

He will continue to demand that his so-called "negotiators" get a "better deal" -- one that doesn't mean recommitting to Obama's treaty, shoveling 10x the amount of money at Iran that Obama did, and an "environmental fee" (i.e., toll).

Unfortunately, more competent folk than his morons wouldn't be able to craft a way out that isn't effectively a declaration of surrender and declaration that the treaty negotiated over two years by the Obama administration, which was supported by allies -- a treaty the felon ripped to shreds -- was the best deal possible.

All the while, the global and domestic harms and chaos of the war will escalate.

As I've said before, this is utterly unsustainable. A breaking point will be reached and more and more of those currently sticking by him will stop kidding themselves that the war will magically be resolved "any day now "

If enough wake up, they'll try get him to resign for "health reasons" or some other face-saving escape from his monumental, criminal debacle.

All bets are off at that point. He will lash out, perhaps in ways we can't imagine. It could be a very dark time as it becomes clear Trump's reign must be brought to an end.

When/if they manage to push him out and J.D. makes the deal, J.D. could be so pissed that the felon put him in that position that he releases all the Epstein files with Trump redactions removed.

Who the hell knows?

I sure don't, but these are strange times. And strange times breed unexpected turns of events.
