So we're giving them a little time so they can get their act together.
Meanwhile, you've got, you know, military officials being pushed down here and total, you know, Trump contradicting himself hour to hour.
We couldn't even get a straight answer about whether or not the vice president was going to be involved in the negotiations or not.
But in any case, let's take a listen to Caroline Levitt talking about this on Fox News and claiming, pushing forward this line that like, oh, the Iranians are so divided they can't even put together a unified proposal.
I mean, there is so much to say about, yeah, after his death.
Oh, how did he die?
Yeah, because, I mean, hey, maybe it would have been good to have someone in place who would have been easier to work with or some of the other guys.
You know, people who were more moderate, who were more interested in diplomacy that were also murdered by us and the Israelis, so they are no longer possible to participate in negotiations.
But, you know, not to say that there isn't division within the Iranian government.
I think, you know, Jeremy's reporting indicates that there is.
But the idea that that has created this deep dysfunction that makes it impossible for them to put a negotiation proposal together, we know that's not true.
They have had their red lines from the beginning.
I mean, from the onset of this war, they've said, this is what we need in order to come to a ceasefire.
And they've been very consistent and they really haven't wavered from that.
So, yes, I'm sure there are very vehement differences of opinion between different factions within the Iranian government.
That doesn't mean that they've collapsed and they can't come up with a proposal and they're so divided that they can't even figure out how to get to the negotiating table.
They have real institutions.
I mean, we have this cartoonish view of Iran that it's just like all the Ayatollah and that's it.
I mean, this was Trump's view, this cartoonish view.
Oh, so if we take him out, then that's it.
