Washington President Donald Trump and his most senior Cabinet officials have a message for the leaders in Iran -- it's just not quite the same one.
National security adviser John Bolton and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have threatened"unrelenting force" and"a swift and decisive response" to any Iranian provocation after saying intelligence indicates Tehran may intend to threaten US forces or allies in the region.Asked Thursday if there's a risk of military confrontation, Trump said,"I guess you could say that always, right?" and then delivered his central message.
— Javad Zarif February 20, 2019 But a day after Trump made such a gesture, saying he'd like Iran's leaders to"call me," a top Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps commander said Iran would not engage in talks."Negotiations with Americans will not take place," Lieutenant Commander for Political Affairs Brigadier General Yadollah Javani told the semi-official Tasnim News Agency."Americans will not dare to take military action against us," he added.
— John Bolton May 9, 2019 Those sources say Trump is urging caution in Venezuela among advisers and expressing frustration that some aides, including Bolton, are more openly teasing military intervention.However, in public, Trump has long chafed at any suggestion his decisions or actions are being manipulated or orchestrated by someone other than himself.
Wouldn't it be easier for POTUS realDonaldTrump to fire AmbJohnBolton?
Shame on you cnn the bastards. We are hostages in hands of Islamic regime and you are playing with them.
CNN will help the military Industrial complex push us into war just like every war over the last decades. Fake News = Propaganda Just because 3 news stations spew the same lies doesn’t make them facts.
And Kerry says no don’t to Iran ...Logan act ?😈🤡
I don't think it's safe at this point to infer that Trump is 'playing' at anything. He just does shit and then sits back to watch what happens.
Finally, we have a president with a 'back' bone' that stands up against the 'evil' in this world! !
It’s bullshit...sorry but I can’t stand saying BS where trump is involved, he doesn’t deserve niceties.
So....? You would be good with the war?
Do they call you collect? They probably deleted your number foo.
The old man is simply saying to Iran that he needs some respect, and everything would be fine
Trump left the prior deal without cause, why would they want to negotiate w/ him? Trump didn't even know a thing about the Iran deal... it's ridiculous this ignorant fraud child is still in the WH. impeach
World peace...projectsaveadopeboy
call_me
It is necessary for Iran to please call Trump, if that would be enough to stave off war in the Persian Gulf. That is called wisdom.
Where is the WMD? Your overloaded and over stock of weaponry are expiring, got to use it or sell it? No money for recycling?
What happened to his 'skillful, very smart' son in law who supposedly is a master of Mideast deals? He got only Saudi personal deal he was interested in and is over. Pieces of 1 big shit-trump!
Too bad Trump always has to go around and clean up Obama's mess..........
Carrot and stick approach, that's why he has an orange face.
In real news.
President Trump is running his foreign policy like his 'Apprentice ' reality show. He is playing fast and loose with millions of lives. America is becoming hated around the world. Trump betrays our trusted allies and befriends America's foes. He is delusional and dangerous.

There is no strategy here...give it up. After 2 years, he’s not pivoting...he’s not normal...he’s not interested in governing for America’s interest.
Thousands of Kurds have been killed in Iran for Islamic reasons realDonaldTrump
Great diplomacy
I MEANING OF I 6:8 AM LEFT TO 7000 ON 57 11 FROM MEANS ALL IS FROM ME
The DC do nothing politicians should pass legislation that American business organizations can not contract with China. That is contract for China to provide slave like labor to produce American owned products. America should be ashamed to relocate slavery to another nation.
Trump is such a delusional narcissistic ignoramus, he believes he can settle any dispute in a 45 minute meeting. When in reality, he has failed time and time again, as with NK, China, etc. BillionDollarLoser
Can we make call by whatsapp as all ministries government are under sanction. !!!!!!

If trump sent iran pallets of cash to buy the off would call him a traitor!!!
Call me? Trump is clueless
I wonder if Iran is familiar with this stupid game....🙄
Will he give the same deal as Obama under a new name or will he transfer nuclear materials in exchange for Trump Tower Tehran?
Trump: 'Hello, this is President Donald J. Trump.' Iran: 'Hello, this is Iran.' Trump: 'I am receiving this call in The Oval Office in The White House in Washington, DC.' Iran: 'You asked us to call you, Mr. President.' Trump: 'What are you wearing?'
Obama said 'Here, lemme send you some tarp covered pallets under the darkness of night. I'll stick a little extra somethin somethin in there.'
How did that work out with North Korea?
Young Vibrant and in Tremendous SHAPE!
Lol. Thirsty, thirsty man-child. Any foreign government that pretends to respect him can have their way with him in a negotiation.
Trump as the Good Cop...Now that is Funny!
those guys should be careful with their games 🤔
Time for another summit, much better than another trillion dollar war
USA will never change ,a snake will never becomes deer 🦌 q
Right. Because he really worked that magic with North Korea. 🙄
Trump likes secure line phone calls because then there are few witnesses to his machinations.
Making the 'Death to America' chanters come crawling back. Hilarious.
Keep it up

Call him what?
Mr. Trump is a master negotiator. Good for America. AmericaFirst
