Trump says Iran can phone if it wants to talk; Iranian minister heads to Russia

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here's my number, so call me, maybe?

Didn't Trump say the pause in bombings/ceasefire, whatever they are calling it now, would go on only as long has serious negotiations are going on? If negotiations are not going on does that mean the bombing is back on? I don't see how Trump gets out of this without either capitulating in a major way and taking the humiliation or escalating and making good on his threat to target dual use (civilian) infrastructure. The stock market seems to think this is all about to be over, it'll nosedive if it isn't since escalation would be disastrous for the global economy

Iran going to Russia is like walking over to chat with the manager. Who else thinks Bone Spurs is about to get specific instructions?

The SNL skit of Trump doing the “you used to call me on the cellphone” is about to go viral again.

Hopefully they don't start shipping troops to Ukraine for money.

Their whole thing is there's no one serious, qualified or competent to talk to in your administration, you keep sending morons and trying to crash parties you're not invited to

Dear Slim, I wrote to you but you ain't callin

Looks like they are going to walk diplomatic circles around us😒

Someone pretending to be Iran is going to prank him so hard.

Headline edit "Iranian Diplomat Cuts-Out The Middleman"

Iran just wants to use that special Cold War era red phone that directly connects the Kremlin to the White House

Hey went straight to the source , there you go!

So they are just going ahead and escalating the issue to one of his supervisors.

That's our stable genius? Our great negotiator? Who just punted on 4th and inches? You called it MAGA?

But trump claims he wiped out all communication to and from Iran . Trumps lies again.

Is he dead yet?

Dear Iran ,I wrote you, but you still ain’t callin’ I left my cell, my pager and my home phone at the bottom I sent two letters back in March you must not’ve got ’em There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin

Maybe to ask Putin for advice on how to get His Orangeness to answer the !#@#$% phone?

But, but, but Trumpster said he’s was really, really, really close to it all being over and he had succeeded with many big bombs and guns????!!!!

While Netanyahu sits back and laughs his head, hoping that Trump will invade Iran ! Trump is a gullible fool !

Attacking Iran, for no reason, was like stepping on a turd wearing boots with Vibram soles; easy to do, but the stinking mess stays on you... Trump caused this mess, and he has to find an exit before the whole world economy sinks from his abject idiocy and narcissism.

Iranian minister knows where the phone line is

so desperate

So they are going directly to the pumpkins boss. Great play, Iran 🇮🇷.

The Shart of the Deal.

Playing hard to get: Arse of the Deal.

They’ve been trying to get it to look like the ball is in Iran’s court so hard to make them look indecisive and incompetent- like this is their fault entirely, and the only problem forward is them. “Do what I say when I say it or I will make it look like you’re causing a scene.” Sounds like it’s from a certain kind of person’s playbook…

On Xbox Live though 

If he goes to Russia, Trump will do whatever they tell him to. 

Russian war chest is smiling

Just Dance goes straight to voicemail.

As crazy as Putin is, at least his words have meaning, unlike the orange turd.

I wonder why there's been a shift away from talks - it seemed Trump pulled the plug right as Vance and co. were headed back to Pakistan (and the Iranian delegation was effectively left twiddling their thumbs). Recent news all suggests that Iran is becoming more desperate to deal. Perhaps that's why: Trump knows he has them under the pump now that there isn't a direct, ongoing military threat for the various factions to rally around the flag with. The blockade is doing the job. Dunno if effectively saying 'come to my house and beg' is a particularly diplomatic track to take, but Trump does appear to have all the 'cards' right now.
