Iran Called Trump's Bluff — And Trump Blinked
from Mallen Baker: Faultlines · host Mallen Baker
President Trump had gone back into bombing Iran, because this time he was going to grab all of Iran's oil, and invade Kharg Island and force them to agree to his deal. And they hit back, and refused to cave - and then suddenly (and not for the first time), he blinked. And now the attacks are off, and a deal is very much fully agreed this time definitely certainly probably. What's really going on? Let's discuss.
