TRUMP: ‘NO STICKING POINTS’: To hear President Donald Trump tell it, a deal to open the Strait of Hormuz and bar Iran from ever having nuclear weapons is just days away. By one count, Trump has made similar statements more than three dozen times in the past few months. However, speaking to reporters at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York last night, Trump insisted negotiations were about to conclude with a “powerful deal.”
“We’re in the final throes of what will be a very, very good deal that will not allow in any way, shape, or form nuclear weapons, et cetera,” Trump said after watching game three of the NBA Finals in New York. “And the Strait will open up right away. It’ll open up immediately upon signing, which could be in two or three days.”
