DUBAI/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday he would impose fresh sanctions on Iran but that he wanted to make a deal to bolster its flagging economy, an apparent move to defuse tensions following the shooting down of an unmanned U.S. drone this week by the Islamic Republic.On Thursday, an Iranian missile destroyed a U.S. Global Hawk surveillance drone, an incident that Washington said happened in international airspace. Trump later said he had called off a military strike to retaliate because it could have killed 150 people. Tehran repeated on Saturday that the drone was shot down over its territory and said it would respond firmly to any U.S. threat.

He will pull them back Monday morning for at least two weeks to negotiate some more.
How about we send them our 40 million illegals.
Two weeks with Iran. Two weeks deportation delay. The two weeks president.
You have no idea of the obstacles Trump is facing. He is not an absolute ruler.
He is doing the best he can, under the circumstances, and he hasn’t given up.
Food for Thought...
Yep. That’s what it’s starting to look like with Trump.
Threaten and pull back. I hope he doesn’t pull back.
If I was really cynical I’d say that Iran talked to Kerry or some previous Obama administration people to agree to have an attempted war with America so as to destroy Trump’s chances in 2020. Trump is proportional and that is good at this point.
The Dems are having closed door briefings with Brennan. Who cares about Kerry. Kerry and band of whatever shouldn’t be given any consideration on furtherance of Iran policy and that includes current Dem congress critters.
Jackass!
he will cancel
I dare ya! I double-dog dare ya! Ha! You won't even win a delegate.
You guys need to turn your brains on...he got the Dems to bite with the raid announcements and he gains leverage whether they actually do something or if they do what they do and renege...and a quip about Iran, etc., w/o any real thought going into it makes me think my tagline fits you both....
Opinions and reputation of one who invests in neither is worth what one invests....
But - anti-Trump concern trolls do what they do....maybe a change of sites would put you with like-minded folks who look harder for ways to criticize President Trump than to actually support him.
