...like he always does.

Negotiations seem to be making progress. Enter Trump with a stupid, inflammatory bleat:

"I’m winning a War, BY A LOT, things are going very well, our Military has been amazing and, if you read the Fake News, like The Failing New York Times, the absolutely horrendous and disgusting Wall Street Journal, or the now almost defunct, fortunately, Washington Post, you would actually think we are losing the War.

The enemy is confused, because they get these same Media “reports,” and yet they realize their Navy has been completely wiped out, their Air Force has gone onto darker runways, they have no Anti Missile or Anti Airplane Equipment, their former leaders are mostly gone (This has been, in addition to everything else, a total Regime Change!).

THE BLOCKADE, which we will not take off until there is a 'DEAL,' is absolutely destroying Iran. 1 They are losing $500 Million Dollars a day, an unsustainable number, even in the short run. The Anti-America Fake News Media is rooting for Iran to win, but it's not going to happen, because I'm in charge! 2 Just like these unpatriotic people used every ounce of their limited strength to fight me in the Election, they continue to do so with Iran. The result will be the same 3 — It already is!"


Art of the Deal!

And yet, he declares victory, about every other day.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he thinks the U.S. is “going to end up with a great deal” with Iran to end the weekslong war, even as he said he does not expect to extend a ceasefire due to expire on Wednesday.

“I think they have no choice,” Trump said during an interview on CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” when asked what he expected to come out of a second round of peace negotiations with Iran.

Everything is going "better than expected".

“If you would have told me that oil is at 90 [dollars] as opposed to 200 I would be frankly surprised,” Trump said on “Squawk Box.” “And you know what is happening? Boats are finding other sources. They’re going up to Texas and Louisiana. They’re going to Alaska, they’re going to other places. It’s an amazing phenomenon.”

“Look at that S&P [500]. The numbers are what they were when we started this whole thing. I thought they’d be down 20% or down a very substantial amount,” Trump said. “When it was down more a couple of weeks ago, I was surprised. I thought it would be down much more, and I thought the oil would be much higher, and I’m very happy to say that it wasn’t.”
