The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Thursday is "peace is at hand day".

If he had the slightest bit of discipline or consistency, people might take him seriously. But no. He insists on being a blustering, bellowing, buffoon.

Actually, there are two subgroups of humanity that, apparently, take him seriously. the MAGA base, and Mr Market, as they happily whipsaw themselves to death, stampeding according to every bit of nonsense that comes out of his piehole. The rest of the world probably wonders, why USians can't grasp his first priority is making himself richer, and he is playing the base and the market for fools. The second priority is building monuments to himself, but he has the checkbook of the United States to cover his every whim, on that score.

Trump claims Iran war settled ‘subject to finalization,’ expects signing in ‘next few days’

President Donald Trump on Thursday claimed that the U.S. “just made a great settlement of the war with Iran,” subject to the “finalization of documents.”

Trump said in the Oval Office that he expects a signing to occur “over the next few days,” repeating similar claims he has made numerous times over the course of the war.

The Strait of Hormuz, the vital oil-shipping route that has become a major chokepoint during the war, will be reopened as soon as a deal is signed, Trump said.
