Every other week he announces a new <em>&#8220;peace&#8221;<\/em> deal, or ceasefire, or memorandum of understanding, or assessment that Iran lacks any military ability to continue fighting.

On Monday his son-in-lawlessness, Jared Kushner, who Trump has designated his <em>&#8220;Special Envoy for Peace,&#8221;<\/em> was interviewed on Fox News where he made some definitive statements on the situation in Iran. He said that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The conversations between the U.S. government and different areas of the Iranian government at all areas is probably more robust than it&#8217;s maybe ever been. And so there&#8217;s been a lot of good dialogues which I think is very helpful&#8230;They are engaging in a very strong way, and that&#8217;s quite positive.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Well, that would all be very good news if it weren&#8217;t for the fact that the next day Trump posted a comment on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70518\" target=\"_blank\">his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, that completely contradicts Kushner. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/trumpstruth.org\/statuses\/40962\" target=\"_blank\">He wrote<\/a><\/strong> that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;There are no talks or conversations going on, or scheduled, with the Islamic Republic of Iran. The Naval Blockade remains in full force and effect. The Hormuz Strait is open and operating. All water mines have been removed or detonated. Thank you for your attention to this matter!&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"embed-x\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Today Trump posted on Truth Social that &quot;There are no talks going on with Iran.&quot; <\/p>\n<p>Yesterday Jared Kushner told Fox News that Iran is &quot;engaging in a very strong way&quot; in talks that are &quot;probably more robust than it\u2019s maybe ever been.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Who do you believe when they are both liars? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/v0Ks0SSKEU\">https:\/\/t.co\/v0Ks0SSKEU<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/X0tdYuic4u\">pic.twitter.com\/X0tdYuic4u<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; News Corpse (@NewsCorpse) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NewsCorpse\/status\/2089749003756077426?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 18, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>To summarize, on Monday, according to Kushner, the conversations were <em>&#8220;more robust than ever.&#8221;<\/em> But on Tuesday, according to Trump, <em>&#8220;There are no talks or conversations going on, or scheduled.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So who do you believe? Both are such reliable and accomplished liars. Although Trump may have the edge here, with regard to peace talks, because he agrees with Iran, whose public statements on the war have proven to be far more accurate than any coming from U.S. sources. Of course, everything else else in Trump&#8217;s comment was blatantly false.<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see how this plays out. Will Kushner flip and try to spin that he was actually talking about a new hotel project in Tehran, and not about the war? Or will Trump blast Kushner as a radical lunatic who is spreading fake news? Perhaps he might fire Kushner and replace him with Mike Lindell, who is now looking for a job.<\/p>\n<p>There is one thing that we learn for sure in all of this. Trump has absolutely no idea what he or his minions are doing. They are making it up as they go along. And failing with each new decision. Unfortunately, the American people are paying the price for his ignorance. As are the people of the world, including thousands of innocent Iranians. And how can expect Trump and his team to negotiate an agreement between the U.S. and Iran if they can&#8217;t even agree within his own family?<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70486\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Makes Truly Bizarre and Ignorant Pleas for Iran to Pay Reparations for the War He Started<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70424\" target=\"_blank\">BLAME AMERICA FIRST: Trump Takes Iran\u2019s Side in an Allegation of a Cyberattack in Minnesota<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70373\" target=\"_blank\">Trump In His Own Words: To Make Military Decisions \u2018All We Do is Read the Fake News\u2019 \u2013 REALLY?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/newscorpse.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\">Bluesky<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@newscorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Threads<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The war that Donald Trump started with Iran six months ago still has no end in sight.
