(i think) Iran knows very well T loathes bloodshed, knowing this, they egregiously are taunting him.
they seem ambivalent and historically ambivalent to bloodshed. possibly, in ways, they glory in it.

people can make themselves believe anything.

i’m perfectly comfortable with an older, wiser, more docile Trump.

A wee little man can’t say, I’m sorry. A big man owns his mistakes and apologizes.
A wee little man trusts himself and his own discernment. A big man is humble enough to know that he needs the counsel and input of others.

Hmmm... maybe both sides love bloodshed and glory in it... maybe that's why they are fighting...

The VP hasn't left for Islamabad yet but supposedly is going tomorrow. I don't think they even know if the Iranians will show up, but I read one source that said they will not show unless Vance is present. The post below is incorrect in that Trump has announced the ceasefire is good till Wednesday. Regardless, seems that the next two days will determine a lot.

It's amazing how much political capital Trump is putting on the line with the Iran conflict.
