Trump is bad at reaching meaningful agreements with autocrats.

He failed in his first term with Kim Jong Un.

He played a game of chicken with Xi Jinping last year, and then backed down.

He has accomplished nothing with Putin regarding the end of the war in Ukraine.

Negotiations with autocrats in Iran are not going well either.

He's better at coercing democratic allies.

Last month, solar power generated 12.8% of electricity in the U.S. while coal was responsible for 12.2%.

It’s the first time in history that solar accounted for more energy than coal. 🔋 https://t.co/yMxwOduobq

original iran nuclear deal:
“under no circumstances will iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapon.”

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

He fucked up launching this war, and he’ll fuck up with how this war will end. The U.S. will walk away weaker, Iran will walk away stronger, and the world’s economy will have taken a huge hit. All bcuz an idiot/pathological liar/sociopath sits in the White House.

No one should be surprised.

[Erick Erickson @EWErickson]

So Iran opens the strait, gets a fee per ship passing through, gets $10 billion in cash minimum up front, and we punt on nuclear terms till later. This is an American surrender to a terrorist regime sold this morning to various conservative outlets to cheerlead.

[David Shuster @DavidShuster]

Withdraw all forces from Persian gulf, lift all sanctions on Iran, give Iran $12B immediately and $12B more in 60 days, give Iran $300B in construction, let Iran control/toll Strait of Hormuz. US gets promise to discuss Iran nukes. This is not a deal. It is a US surrender.

[Phillips P. OBrien @PhillipsPOBrien]

This might be hard for Americans to hear, but the USA getting humiliated by its abject failure as a power during this Iran War might be the best thing possible at this time. The country needs to understand there are consequences for electing a crook.

🚨🇺🇸 A terrified Bongino told Tucker that Trump shut down the Butler investigation himself.

Tucker says he accidentally obtained the Thomas Crooks social media posts the FBI claimed didn't exist, then called Kash Patel and Dan Bongino looking for answers.

Bongino, a friend of many years, allegedly became hysterical before finally telling him to take it up with Trump, who he said killed the Butler investigation himself.

Tucker says he still has every text exchange.

"There's no good explanation for shutting down an investigation into your own attempted murder.

This is not what we've been told it was."

There's always a tweet

[SON LAİK BÜKÜCÜ 🇹🇷 @TheLaikYobaz]

TRUMP: Hürmüz Boğazı’nı saat 20.00’ye kadar açın yoksa medeniyetinizi yok ederim.

İRAN: Hayır, Hürmüz'ü açmıyoruz.

TRUMP: Tamam, sert oynamak istiyorsunuz, biz de oynarız.

İRAN: Oynayın.

TRUMP: O zaman süresiz ateşkesi başlattım.

[Jonah Goldberg @JonahDispatch]

Maybe because he literally just put an entirely unqualified political hatchet man in charge of the DNI — while we’re at war — and the only reason he could give was that he would look into the “stolen” election bullshit? He’s making hugely important decisions based on a lie. That seems worth paying attention to. He also tried to set up a compensation fund for people who, inspired by his promulgation of that lie, laid siege to the Capitol. Oh and the only legislation he cares about is all wrapped up in his delusions about how elections are stolen. I can keep coming up with reasons. But the fact that the president still thinks his lie should drive policy and personnel (several J6ers work in the administration) that makes it relevant, imho.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

The legacy of this @POTUS won't be the monuments he builds to himself but the destruction of faith in public institutions for his own power and profit.
He wants to rewrite or erase history because he knows it won't be kind to him.

Trump has a meltdown and ends the interview

Welker: Just to be very clear, there's no evidence of what you're saying.

Trump: There’s a lot of evidence. There’s tremendous evidence. There’s nothing but evidence. The election was rigged. And it’s happening again in California. They’re cheating.

Welker: Do you have evidence?

Trump: All I have to do is look.

Welker: That’s not evidence. The local officials acknowledge they are slow

Trump: They’re crooked. Just like you’re crooked. You’re either crooked or stupid.
