Yea right - you really think he is going to apply a 50% tarrif to his pals in Russia.
For example...Trump's words are meaningless.
This guy is unbelievable. 'I'm going to keep punishing US manufacturers, US importers and US consumers till these countries bend to my will'.
More like Obama.Thanks, Biden.
Trump is tired and bored with the thing that was supposed to only last two weeks. He's done. Desperately trying to change the subject of the Epstein files was a colossal failure. First on the list of Congresses things to do after disappearing on vacation through this whole debacle will be interview Bill Gates.Why is anyone believing anything that is being said.
It's his power object.This guy is unbelievable. 'I'm going to keep punishing US manufacturers, US importers and US consumers till these countries bend to my will'.
I don't think he's bored so much as desperate. His choices were massive escalation or surrender and he chose surrender.Trump is tired and bored with the thing that was supposed to only last two weeks. He done.

No big shock there - Iran has figured out they have massive leverage here and are using it.
When will this jackass ever learn that the whole Planet (except for some of his billionaire friends, possibly a few family members and a dwindling number of Putinist / Maga scumbags) seriously hates him.
If there skim in it for him, it's a deal.
I'm not sure about the nukes thing.
Iran has clearly won this dispute.

Wait...don't answer.
I know the answer is NEVER, and he doesn't care anyway..
No need for physical threats. Just withdraw all support like air defence coverage, logistics, etc. Without it the Israelis would not afford to be so adventurous.IMO the way to get Israel to adhere to a ceasefire is to channel the energy of the captain of the prison guard from 'The Shawshank Redemption': "I swear to God and sunny Jesus that if I so much as hear a mouse fart in here, all of you will visit the infirmary!", ie. if Israel does so much as fire one bullet at its enemies, a bomb will be dropped on Israel, starting with the residences of the Knesset, once per infraction / bullet.
However, they would continue to break ceasefires, which makes diplomacy pointless.No need for physical threats. Just withdraw all support like air defence coverage, logistics, etc. Without it the Israelis would not afford to be so adventurous.
