All right, Alexander, let's talk about the war in Iran.

And let's talk about Trump's latest truth social post.

And we can also discuss the Wall Street Journal article, the latest from the WSJ,

which is now saying that Trump has told his a his aides, that he may walk away from the war,

complete the objectives that Rubio actually outlined yesterday, which are basically military objectives,

destroy the Navy, destroy the army, destroy the launchers,

accomplish these goals in the next two weeks, and then he's going to walk away from this

conflict is what the Wall Street Journal is reporting. This comes two days after the Wall Street

Journal reported that Trump is preparing for a ground invasion into Iran to extract the uranium.

So a lot of confusion with regards to Trump's messaging.

And then we have the actual war that is happening and the information around the war, which

is a continued escalation and the conflict continuing to intensify. So what do you think is happening

now with the war? I'll tell you what I think. I think that Trump has now finally grasped the

fact that he's losing control of this whole process. The Iranians are not capitulating.

They're not negotiating. The way I read his truth social posts, his latest one, is as an expression of frustration, he says that he's involved in negotiations with a much more reasonable and rational government than the one that was there previously.

Of course, there is no visible sign of such a thing. It's pure fantasy. Basically, I read that

as a plea to the people who are now in charge in Iran to negotiate with him. Because, of course, Trump cannot bring

himself ever to just plea in that way. He adds this extraordinary threat, which is the same

threat he's made in the past, to completely obliterate Iran's energy system. The Iranians were not moved by that before.

I doubt they will be moved by that again. I don't believe it is achievable. But anyway,

that is one thing that Trump is trying to do. He's trying to get or trying to persuade the Iranians to negotiate with him

so that he can get some kind of an off-ramp. That is one thing. And then at the same time,
