Trump’s advisers are letting Tehran play him for a sucker
Post Editorial Board


“The United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack,” President Trump announced Tuesday of Iran’s shootdown of a US Apache attack chopper over the Strait of Hormuz.

Central Command soon launched “proportional strikes,” which don’t sound like enough: The prez needs to show he’s serious, or Tehran will keep trying to play him for a sucker as it has every president going back to Jimmy Carter.

Consider: Trump told the press just hours before that attack, “We’re very close to having a very, very good, strong, powerful deal.”

A country that’s “very close” to sealing a deal in good faith doesn’t escalate against its negotiating partner.

This leaves us wondering which presidential advisers are leading him down this garden path to likely humiliation.

This is bullshit.  Everyone knows it is bullshit.  Trump needs to stop saying this bullshit. 

There is no deal to be make.  There never was gonna be a deal to be made.  The "Art of the Deal" can not be attained when dealing with the Muzzie death cult.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
