Will the ceasefire hold?
The Iranian regime seems not to have taken the measure of Donald Trump.

The Iranian regime seems not to have taken the measure of Donald Trump, even after over a month of war. The Iranians appear to believe he is just another John Kerry or Barack Obama or Joe Biden, who can be intimidated into making every concession they can imagine.
Kerry showed us again on Thursday night, in an interview with his former staffer Jen Psaki on MSNBC, just how bad he was as Secretary of State.
While berating Trump for rushed negotiations with the Iranians before going to war, he reminded us that “we took four years” to get to the failed 2015 nuclear agreement, the JCPOA, as if the foot-dragging and unending concessions were a virtue.
The Iranians need to understand that J.D. Vance, who is leading the U.S. negotiating team, is their best shot at getting any sort of deal with the United States that leaves the regime intact.
