The U.S. blockade of Iranian ports will continue, and the ceasefire with Iran will be extended, President Donald Trump said Tuesday, citing "serious fractures” within the Iranian regime.
“Based on the fact that the government of Iran is seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so, and, upon the request of Field Marshal Asim Munir and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our attack on the country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal,” Trump said in a post shared on Truth Social.
“I have therefore directed our military to continue the blockade and, in all other respects, remain ready and able, and will therefore extend the ceasefire until such time as their proposal is submitted and discussions are concluded, one way or the other,” he added.

Better than TDS jerks
Why is anyone disappointed with this? Mr. Trump is handling this just right.
What Trump’s afraid of?
Weimar.
Funny thing. I can’t.
A person has to be very insecure to make a stupid move to convince people you aren’t a chicken. About an 18 year old level manuever. Trump is protecting America, continuing to weaken Iran, but not destroy the Country. Why damage what you can make use of later if you can just win by continuing the siege.
“ Never let the enemy up when they are down”
But they’re not down. They control the outcome, and it’s hard to see what’s their incentive to let DJT off the hook.
The suits want to deal. The military is psycho.
IRGC deaths coming.
No doubt. But here we are discussing repeating incidents of nothing. Smoke. Fire.
Trump has a great track record of accomplishments, and also a series of a few unfortunate TACOs. Denial isn't a river in Egypt. The Nile is. To deny this is denial.
Easiest job in the Pentagon is armchair General. FR is full of them. After all the endless wars what are a few days or weeks if it leads to peace?
Your post is silly
Like Tim Waltz and J.D Prickster, yeah Trump really showed them....Oh wait.
Well, I took a test and failed my own tagline with you, which you also failed. So...
Good thing you guys are opening your traps so we know who the doubters are! You checker players will be eating your words soon enough. LMAO!
They can’t help it. They are pretenders.
“Since I don’t think there is anyone willing to negotiate who has any real power, then the only end game is bombs away.”
That’s exactly why bombs away is the stupid move. Bomb men, women, children, the entire Iranian people when the bullies (a small % of Iranians) are on the ropes? Patience will accomplish the end goal without the wholesale slaughter of innocents.
Trump to Iran: Please have mercy on these people. If you decide to execute them remember this: We know who you are. We know where you live. Show mercy and we will paint over your names on our missiles.
Are the use of the Spruance’s 5” gun cannot be seen as any different than the USS Charlotte’s sinking of the Iranian ship IRIS Dena. What does Trump do when the 60 days are up?
None of it makes any sense. Trump is playing to his domestic audience. The rest of the world will just see the “blockade”/”cease fire” as the clown show it is and refuse to be a part of it.
Exactly!
TACO yet again.
