Trump says Iran is ready to negotiate a ceasefire but he's not ready to make a deal

(NBC News) President Donald Trump said Saturday that he’s not ready to make a deal to end the war with Iran despite the country’s willingness to do so “because the terms aren’t good enough yet,” but declined to say what those terms would be.

In a wide-ranging, nearly 30-minute telephone interview with NBC News, the president also said he is working with other countries on a plan to secure the Strait of Hormuz amid surges in global oil prices, and he dismissed Americans’ concerns about rising gas prices since the U.S. and Israel launched their joint military operation two weeks ago.

The president also questioned whether Iran’s new supreme leader is “even alive.”

If the new leader was incapacitated, another new leader would be chosen forthwith.

Nobody kisses Trump's ass harder than he does himself. He HAS to tell himself what ever lie makes him feel the best.
