It's a sad day when I trust the words of the Iranian government over my own president.
They're both lying, but who is lying *more*?

Trump is straight up making shit up. His tarmac interview was just off the cuff bullshit.
Like - he's talking to an Iranian leader but won't say who because he doesn't want him blown up??? Are you f****** kidding me?
F***** has the mind of an eight year old. A dishonest piece of shit eight year old.

It was a very calculated market manipulation as usual. His family and his cronies knew this ahead of time and placed their bets ahead of time, as usual

I'm afraid it's a lot bigger than that. He wants people to believe his war has been successful and he's making up negotiations to support a drawn down.
He's going to make shit up, react to his fantasy, and republicans will act as if his behavior is justified.

what’s even funnier is the idea that if he mentioned who he was talking to… uh… his own military or Israel would kill them?
It’s just so laughably stupid how much media lets him get away with.

Or DJT is just making shit up.
Iran is pretty clearly releasing statements. Doesn't seem to be any ambiguity from their side.
There have been no negotiations.

Thanks to social media, if this war had happened in the '90s or even early 2000s, you would never hear something called "the other side's perspective." You would only have believed what the media propaganda told you. We have tons of examples, from the Iraq War to Afghanistan, and even not that long ago, the Syrian and Libyan civil wars—what the Western media described as the Arab Spring.
Edited: yes I still believe some control on some social media platforms

You can bet the Iranians know Trump lies through his teeth and will use that against him.
Truth has a habit of reaching the surface in time. That’s why dictators fear it.

You can always disregard Trump because he actually doesn't know and just says shit. He doesn't know if it's a lie or the truth and that doesn't matter to him. He communicates to get what he wants, not to inform or learn.

Why have you ever trusted an American president especially when it comes to their war crimes?
You really are and have long been a brainwashed nation.

Trumps talking utter bollocks right now, he’s pushed for a regime change in Iran and he’s been wanting an off ramp because he knows there’s more chance of a regime change happening in the US the way things are going. I expect the Israelis will get desperate though and force the US to stay involved by doing something ridiculous.

Trump is a f****** liar. Do not believe anything he says. Last week he said “the war is over and we won. Iran’s military has been obliterated, they have no weapons, no air defense, no ships, no leadership, they are done.” His ego is so fragile that he can’t stand to admit that he underestimated Iran’s strength.

Trump finally put himself in a situation where he does not get the final say. He cannot storm out on a huff or claim victory. He can’t just screw of and use lawfare to screw over Iran. Iran can sit back, wait for him to do so, and then make another strike just to prove him wrong, continually making it obvious he is lying and very much not in control.

Here’s what I think
No one is talking about the boat of marines on their way. Trump is buying time to put troops on the ground for a “surprise” ground invasion. 3 navy ships are also heading that way.
By Friday, there will be some in position to set foot on Persian soil. It’ll happen.

Trump response is primarily directed at his base. They believe in his every words, so to that effect this looks as if Iran was the one pursuing a deal.
The world may know it is a lie, Murdoch Fox empire will spin this as Iran looking for a deal to give political cover to Trump. Please note that Murdoch is also a proponent of bombing Iran.
