The truly ironic thing about President Donald Trump’s war on Iran is that, as much as the president posts about the conflict around the clock on social media, those of us who are on the outside looking in can’t possibly know anything about what’s actually going on in the Middle East, and where we are in negotiating an end to the war, because all we have to go on is the word of a compulsive liar whose cognitive decline is becoming more and more evident by the day.

We’ve seen it over and over again: Trump says negotiations are going well, that Iran is capitulating to all of his demands, and that the war will be over soon, only for the Iranian government to turn right around and say nothing our president claims is true, which then leads to Trump doubling down on his threats to bring Iran’s civilian infrastructure to rubble by bombing its power plants and bridges — in two weeks, or maybe two weeks from then, or maybe some other time.

In fact, it’s now being reported that members of Trump’s administration are beginning to fear that the president is shooting himself in the foot by constantly posting about victories that haven’t happened, productive negotiations that only seem to exist in his mind, and his threats to unleash “Hell” on Iran, which, again, tend to come up every time the illusion of “winning” he tires to present to the world gets shattered in real-time.
