In a shocking turn of events, President Donald Trump has announced that he will be making a decision on Iran within the next two weeks. What’s even more surprising is that he has cited the “chance” of negotiations as a reason for the delay.
When asked for clarification on what this decision might entail, Secretary of State Mike Leavitt had this to say: “Well, you see, the President is a very busy man. He’s got a lot on his plate right now, what with all the tweets and golfing he has to do. But rest assured, he will make a decision on Iran within the next two weeks. Or maybe three. Who knows, really?”
The idea of negotiations with Iran has been met with mixed reactions. Vice President Mike Pence was quoted as saying, “Negotiations? With Iran? That’s like trying to negotiate with a toddler throwing a temper tantrum. Good luck with that, Mr. President.”
Meanwhile, National Security Advisor John Bolton had a different take on the situation. “Negotiations with Iran are a waste of time. The only language they understand is force. We should just nuke ’em and be done with it,” he said with a twinkle in his eye.
As the world waits with bated breath for Trump’s decision, one can’t help but wonder what kind of chaos will ensue. Will we see a diplomatic breakthrough? Or will we witness yet another Twitter tirade from the Commander-in-Chief?
Only time will tell. In the meantime, let’s all just sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. After all, this is the reality TV presidency we signed up for.
