There
is something going on, a dynamic in place, that I've not seen remarked upon
previously: Iran does not need to play the tough guy and refuse to make
concessions to the U.S. because it will never abide by them, anyway.
There is no agreement or “Memorandum of Understanding” that it will not thumb
its nose at, no vow it will not break. Therefore, the only reason they are
doing so is to make President Trump look weak and foolish and embarrass
America. And we are allowing them to do this, which makes us look weaker and
more foolish. Day after day, week after week—and now month after month—we are
allowing them to play this game…as Iran’s leaders, such as they may be, sneer
and laugh.
As I
have previously written, all Iran and its crazy mullahs and
IRGC thugocracy have to do to claim victory is survive. President Trump, the
master of “The Art of the Deal,” is used to negotiating with people who are
sane and have vested interests in seeking a win-win solution/agreement, so he
may have come late to an acknowledgement of Iran’s utter and complete perfidy.
And
yet others, too, still appear credulous. “Sure, Iran’s leaders may give 74
lashes to girls who appear in public with their
head exposed, throw gays of rooftops, and slaughter
thousands of their own citizens for protesting, but do you really think they’d
mislead us or lie about an agreement or “Memorandum of Understanding?”
I am
not alt-right, I am not woke right. I am MAGA all the way, through-and-through.
Proudly. But Trump will have to pull the proverbial rabbit out of the
proverbial hat to save face as regards Iran at this point.
Much
as I admire him, Trump does not readily admit to mistakes. Let’s hope and pray
that he can rectify this one.
