Iran said on Monday there were no talks under way with the United States and no plans for any meetings, contradicting Donald Trump who had ‌cited talks he said would take place that afternoon as justification for calling off attacks.

Over the weekend Trump repeated a pattern that has emerged throughout the past five months: announcing plans for “massive attacks” on Iran, only to cancel them at the last minute.

Iran’s Foreign ⁠Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei rejected the claim, saying no negotiations with the United States were taking place and no meetings were scheduled. Iran had no plans to host foreign delegations or send negotiators abroad in the coming days, he said.

    Most likely Trump wanted to nuke them again but got a stirn no from the generals AGAIN.

    This happened before so it’s not a joking matter. He’ll definitely try again. He really wants to be one of the presidents who dropped a nuke.

      He wants history to remember him as literally anything other than a pedophile rapist.

        I suppose he will end up being remembered as both. He is gonna be in a lot of awful chapters in history books.

          More books, and masters and doctoral theses are going to written about Trump over the next 100 years, than any other president in history. For a guy who is going to firmly cemented in LAST place among presidents, his administration will be studied more than any of them.

          Which is good, because their crimes will be well-documented, so future historians will know all about the Corrupt Treasonous Racist Pedophiles that were MAGA.
