In another embarrassing TACO/u-turn/180/270, trump cancels the plans to bomb Iran really bigly. He said that Iran asked for a pause. The Iranians promptly said he was full of s**t.

But instead of going ahead with the bombing he then changed the story to saying that the Saudis and others had asked for a hold.😂

I can't imaging what sane Americans must be going through. The non-stop embarrassment and humiliation must be pure torture.

"Monday's developments appeared to fit a pattern that has emerged since Trump launched "Operation Epic Fury" alongside Israel more than five months ago. On several occasions, Trump has threatened military action only to later cite diplomatic contacts as a ‌reason for ⁠stepping back.

Iran, however, has publicly rejected negotiations with Washington since a June memorandum of understanding aimed at ending the conflict collapsed in early July.

Trump has yet to achieve the objectives he set out at the outset of the war: dismantling Iran's nuclear programme, curbing its ability to attack regional rivals and creating conditions for Iranians to overthrow their clerical rulers."

Honestly sane Americans, how many days during trump 2.0 can you say you weren't embarrassed? A reminder, he's been in full grift mode since 20th of January, 2025, which is exactly 560 days. Yeah, I know, it feels twice as long.
