(151,343 posts)So far, all he has done is praise the rescue of the F-15 survivor. Bragging and using his usual inflated language

Typical bragging after a mission.
Bragging about Trump
ETA: I don't think that was Hegseth, but someone else. Hegseth is speaking now..

Trump sounded awful as usual.
Mr Left in TX muted the TV. Said all they were doing were kissing Trump's a__

(1,875 posts)Claims Iran wants to strike a deal.
((BUT so far, Iran doesn't want Trump's deal))
Threatened again bridges and infrastructures if a deal's not made by tomorrow evening.
He claimed one holdup to a deal is that Iran is relying on children to relay messages from leadership.
((The use of personal messengers is semi-believable...))

Trump is now asked whether he would consider ending the conflict in Iran with Tehran charging tolls for passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
The US president says he would prefer for the US to charge tolls to vessels, saying "we're the winner"
"We won," he says. "They are militarily defeated... we have a concept where we'll charge tolls."
Trump says that in order to meet his 48-hour deadline - set to end at 20:00 Tuesday (0100 Wednesday) - there needs to be a deal with Iran "that's acceptable to me", adding that "part of that deal is going to be we want free traffic of oil".
