President Donald Trump said Saturday that a deal with Iran, including opening the Strait of Hormuz, has been “largely negotiated” after calls with Israel and other allies in the region.
“Final aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly,” Trump said on social media, with no details on timing. He said he had spoken with leaders from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan and Bahrain, and separately with Israel.
He described it as a “Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to PEACE” that still must be finalized by the United States, Iran and the other countries that participated in Saturday’s talks.
There was no mention of Iran’s nuclear program and highly enriched uranium, which Iran has sought to discuss later.

How clever.
“Mostly” negotiated.
He’s taking the “L”.
Yup, he’s come to the realization that Iran will never fold on their nuclear material. Trump could use a few advisors that aren’t sycophants.
We’re all French now!
What happened to this?
Flashback to March:
We hear things like this from the President, then the next day we hear Iran saying they won’t agree to any of our terms. This is getting exhausting.
The White House @WhiteHouse
🚨 “An Agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalization between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries, as listed...” - President Donald J. Trump
But hey, at least to stock market will be up on Monday.
‘Mostly’ as in everything but the uranium
I’m hopeful .
But a week or so ago we had a one page agreement that was supposedly solid
What did we gain? How much did and will this cost us?
Type 2 TDS (Trump Deification Syndrome) has been cured! MRNA vaccines couldn’t cure it, but ragheads in Iran were able to.
except for nukes and transit fees...
LMAO
This is the 18th or 19th such proclamation from Trump. By Monday the Iranians will be denying any deal has been made and Hormuz remains closed.
But hey, at least to stock market will be up on Monday.

Yeah it’s going to boom, until one of their nukes does.
You see, the mistake you made is that you did not use large enough font. Now, if you had used a larger font, I maight have been convinced that you were someone else, say, a genius, other than a sniveling TDS sufferer.
It does seem he’s punting. We’ll see just how bad it is over the next couple days. Or it could fall apart like all the rest.
The neocons like Levin and Graham are crashing out on Twitter, which leads me to believe this is probably a good move by PDJT.
