Trump claims deal to end Iran war near as Tehran says 'nothing' finalised

US President Donald Trump claimed an agreement to end the war with Iran was close on Thursday, hours after cancelling a third consecutive night of strikes.

Trump had declared the US would strike Iran "very hard", but hours later said his negotiators had "just made a great settlement" with Iran.

He told reporters it was "subject to finalisation of documents, which should get done, over the next few days" and that there would "probably" be a signing ceremony in Europe.

In other words the end is not near and Trump is about to launch another wave of attacks. Check those stock markets.

Yep, blatant market manipulation as it was the whole time (and distracting from Epstein files of course).

It’s every week.

Right before markets close for the weekend, he says a deal is close.

This makes investors feel confident and buy oil futures.

He’s been pumping and dumping the oil market for this entire war, and investors are so stupid they keep believing him. I guarantee when the market finally crashes off the end of this rollercoaster, the war will miraculously end.

I'm starting to doubt there have been ANY negotiations, Trump is straight up daydreaming this shit like those fights you always win in your imagination and then gets confused and thinks those imaginary negotiations were real.

The Iranian government has stated multiple times they don't know who Trump is even talking to when he claims those negotiation breakthroughs.

Mainstream media is captured. They repeat the bullshit narratives every week. You've gotta be retarded to believe them at this point.

This BBC article is doing an ok job. It's true that Trump claims that a deal is near. They also point out the history:

Trump has previously claimed a deal with Iran was close without one materialising.

[...]

On 20 April, Trump said a deal with Iran would be made "relatively quickly", and both he and senior administration figures suggested negotiations were progressing in the weeks that followed.

But on 27 May, after reports the two sides were close to an agreement, Trump said he was "not satisfied" with its terms. Talks have continued since.

[...]

Hours before the latest comments on an impending deal, Trump had said "the United States will be hitting Iran... very hard tonight" while threatening to seize Kharg Island and other oil infrastructure points "in the not too distant future".

If they were doing an okay job, title would be something like, "Pathological liar and narcissistic pedophile makes claims without evidence." With a disclaimer at the top:

"Believing what this pathological liar says without absolute evidence is a mental illness."

That's not news, that's an opinion piece.
And it would get the BBC sued, since Trump hasn't been diagnosed with narcissistic disorder or convicted in a criminal court for child abuse.

There are enough blogs you can read that write like that, though.

Narrator’s voice: “I really wish people would stop tagging me in all this shit. I mean everyone knows Trump is full of shit! What do you mean we’re- oh shit. The mic is hot. Uh. Crap. Uhm. Okay folks. Here it is. Narrator’s voice: He lied.”

His modus operandi is to say whatever he thinks makes him sound good in the moment. It's relation to reality is irrelevant.

At what point do even his supporters see the absurdity in his.

Rhetorical question - I know the real answer.

I feel like Trumps handlers are just trolling us. Like every two weeks they tell grandpa that the deal will be anyday now and he forgot when they told him last time so he just keeps repeating it and they are laughing off camera.
