Sorry, everybody.
My goodness.
Just occurred to me.
Catching strays from the grave.
We were reliably told by Scott Jennings last Thursday that Trump had reached a deal with Iran that got us, quote, everything we want.
What happened?
Is it possible that Scott led us astray?
I also I mean, you tell me, Tommy, but like I don't think that all the pre spinning of what the deal is going to include from the White House is actually helping the negotiations that much.
And in fact, may be hurting them because every time they get close to a deal, then and Iran's probably thinking, OK, like we're going to do this, maybe, you know, and then Trump goes out and is like.
We destroyed them.
We got the best deal ever.
We got everything we ever wanted.
And then the Iranians are probably like, well, fuck, no, I'm not going to do this now.
Yeah, because the honest thing to report on this, or if you were some kind of a conservative pundit, the honest thing to even say is glad it's over now, but that wasn't worth it.
And not in exactly those words, but that is the tenor of whatever deal we're going to get, is that there's no way we came out better than we started.
