Consider the source.
“President Donald Trump proclaimed on Tuesday that talks with Iran were not happening, a direct contradiction to his own son-in-law and top negotiator Jared Kushner, who said a day earlier that the negotiations were ongoing.”
I think I have figured this out.
They were negotiating on Monday but quit negotiating on Tuesday.
Jared Kushner is a weird little man.
Mediaite
Geeze. SMH
Oh, no! Anyway...
America shouldn’t be represented overseas by someone with mixed loyalties.
Mines are cleared, strait is open. There are no more nukes in Iran and the regime has been changed.
One of more of these statements are not correct.

A smarmy and deliberately misleading or dishonest article pretending to be a news article.
Par for the course.
Ok, for people not able to understand English tenses or think critically, this:
“And if Iran is willing to, you know, finish the deal they’ve been discussing with us” does not contradict Trump’s comment.
The take home message is this is not a news report but agenda driven propaganda.
