What a fine mess he's gotten himself into. It's hilarious to watch him face someone who doesn't say yes for the first time ever, and absolutely crumble as a result

JD & the Realtors are back together again. Originally their booking agent in the White House said JD wasn’t going due to security concerns. Now they can try to beat their last record of trying to achieve world peace in under 21 hours even the original agreement with Iran took 2 years. These talks should go much faster since Iran announced they have no plans to attend.

Witkoff a failed real estate developer and russian agent, Kushtner his son in law, and JD Vance (who is just a yes man) negotiating. What a great country

Who are these US negotiators? Are they qualified or competent people? (That was a rhetorical question, we know the answer already)

The better question is: why are they going? There is no scheduled negotiation with Iran on Monday.

Iran hasn’t confirmed there’s any meeting and Trump talking like this doesn’t look like a deal is close, it looks like coercion and trying to force a deal because he wants to get out of this quagmire but Iran isn’t cooperating.

Pakistan seems to think so. Some guy from Islamabad posted on the megathread about how Pakistan was going all out to clean and prepare the hotel they used last time, cleaning up the area and some surrounding hotels, and cordoning off streets for security around the hotel. Same stuff he's only seen for the last meeting hosted.

Reuters just posted that Iran has no plans to send a delegation while the US blockade remains in effect. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/iran-currently-has-no-decision-send-negotiating-delegation-pakistan-tasnim-2026-04-19/

They've before said they wouldn't do the last negotiations while Israel was still bombing Lebanon, but it happened. So maybe, maybe not. It's all a clusterfuck at this point.

I heard about that but they would be doing all that prep anyway. Regardless of if the talks happen or not though a clean quick deal seems exceptionally unlikely given that Trump is already threatening them again, which you wouldn’t do if you were meeting to put the finishing touches on a deal.

All the market indices will go up by 2% tomorrow on this news. Even though Iran is firing at ships in the strait. And when the talks yield nothing, and the markets start tanking, just minutes before the deadline to destroy all of Iran's power plants, someone from Pakistan will tweet "President Trump, a high level official from Iran winked at me. We are very hopefully that we reach a deal. Can you declare a ceasefire for 15 days". And then Trump will tweet "We gave all the Iranian officials a thorough ass spanking. All of their asses are sore. They are not even able to sit down. So we will give them 15 days to heal their asses. If their asses are still not healed and they are still not willing to make a deal we will bomb all of their power plants and bridges". And he will attach a small quote from the Quran or something. Cause now Trump is a Muslim or something. And obviously the Iranians will accept the cease fire agreement because who wants to get their country destroyed lol. And obviously they will also not open up the strait because either Israel is still shooting at them or their allies or US is using ships to blockage the strait themselves or whatever. And all the market indices will go up by 3% just because Trump and Iran had a conversation. And 15 days later the same farce will repeat. At this point, I am wondering how the hell are all these countries able to survive without Oil? Bloomberg or someone put out a report saying Europe will receive the last shipment of oil on 10ths. So far it has been 10 days. Not a peep from them. What the hell are they doing for oil? Why are they so silent? Also the oil prices in the US reached 4.1 dollars or something. How the hell are American citizens not protesting.

Did anyone tell Iran, cause they said they ain't going. What is the f****** plan here? The damage this man has done to our international standing is to the point that even Canada is talking about ditching us. Canada is a major trading partner. This will hurt the US more than people realize.
