All right, Donald Trump was just booed at UFC. I mean, I don't blame them because we all know that nothing's going well. Donald Trump's promises have turned into lies and everything is truly out of control. And what is Donald Trump doing while J.D. Vance is failing at his one job, which is to get a negotiation between this country and Iran? Donald Trump's at UFC. And as I said, he got booed. They actually had to turn the music all the way up in order to hide it. and you can still hear it.

The 45th and now 47 presidents of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump. There is. Don't blame them. Donald Trump is not having a great day because he said this on his way to that fight. All right, he's going to talk for two more minutes, and we just don't have to listen to it. But what he's saying there is, whether they make a deal or not, it doesn't make a difference because we've won. Well, I'm glad he said that because, as I'm about to show you, J.D. Vance came empty-handed 30 hours in negotiations and they didn't get anywhere.

Is it any surprise when our Secretary of State looks wasted like this? My God. Now, Donald Trump is, as I said, in his feelings. Son of dementia is on an inability to keep control of your feelings. And here he is snapping on a female reporter. They have no Navy. 158 ships are underwater undersea. All of their mine sweepers and all of their, they call them mine droppers. Can you imagine a country has 28 mine droppers? You think that's nice?

With all of that being said, they're all defeated, by the way. They're all at the bottom of the sea. Now, with all... All right. Now, what's really interesting is CNN, or not CNN, Fox News, actually did a quick fact checked on that when Donald Trump was leaving, saying like, well, Mr. President, if you've defeated all of Iran's leaders and who are you negotiating with? President Trump there, about to board Marine One.

He'll head to Andrew's Air Force Base and then down to Miami for a UFC fight this evening. The president there talking about the war, the progress of the war in Iran. He said their leaders are all dead, but a couple of their leaders are actually in Pakistan right now, meeting with his vice president to talk about some kind of a deal to end the way. I love that. It's just like, well, the president said all their leaders are dead, but some of alive. He got that little, he got that little piece wrong. It's just, it's astounding. Now, J.D. Vance, uh, oh, God, he said he has some bad news. We've had a number of substantive discussions with the Iranians. That's the good news.

The bad news is that we have not reached the agreement. And I think that's bad news for Iran much more than it's bad news for the United States of America. So we go back to the United States having not come to an agreement. We've made very clear what our red lines are, what things we're willing to accommodate them on, and what things we're not willing to accommodate them on. And we've made that as clear as we possibly could, and they have chosen not to accept our terms. Okay. J.D. Vance went on to say this.

Mr. Vice President, how often did you communicate with President Trump throughout the negotiations? There were reports that there were multiple rounds where they were great with the president. Yeah, obviously, we were talking to the president consistently. I don't know how many times we talked to him, a half dozen times, a dozen times over the past 21 hours. We obviously also talked to Admiral Cooper, to Pete, to Marco, to the entire national security team. We talked to Scott Bissend a number of times. So look, we were constantly in communication with the team because we were negotiating in good faith.

And we leave here, and we leave here with a very simple proposal, a method of understanding that is our final and best offer. We'll see if the Iran is accepted. Thank you. Okay. And he actually walked away abruptly after the end of that, and here's a bit of that.

That is our final and best offer. offer. We'll see if the rate is accepted. Thank you. So, where did this? We're going back to Moore? Did you talk to my minister, Netanyahu at all today? What about the string of her moose? Did they give you any indication of the Supreme Leader's health? So what a couple of things about that, that is quite fascinating to me, maybe fascinating to you.

Obviously, not great that we don't have a deal in place. Let us just remember the reason why we have to have a deal. at all is because Donald Trump started a war that didn't need to happen. The straight of Hamoos was open until Donald Trump decided that he wanted to do

Israel's bidding and start a war that we didn't need to be fighting. So that's number one. Number two, what's really interesting is that we don't know what this means. That there's been no agreement. Remember, Donald

Trump said that that one through ten agreement that he saw, he said it was a good starting ground. And yet they couldn't get anywhere after 30 hours. So we don't even know if the war is on, if it's still off, what the next steps are. There's absolutely no guidance from the White House on what's happening next. Are we going to have troops in the ground? Is Donald Trump going to unleash more bombs on Iran? They're going to kill more school children?

We don't know. But... What's fascinating is that it doesn't seem like Donald Trump really cares. He's having fun. He's getting praise and booze. But he's certainly not worried about the thing that we're talking about tonight, which is what the hell is going on with this war you started. You know he doesn't want this thing to keep going on or keep going.

we've seen that reporting Donald Trump is kind of bored with this we've read and one final thought about this Donald Trump knows what he's doing this is a failure Donald Trump doesn't want to be associated with failures

and so what's he do he sends out Jady Vance who had his whole brand was being anti-war, being America first, saying no more wars in the Middle East. And here's J.D. Vance trying to negotiate an impossible situation, truly being set up to fail. I think we're all losers in this situation, but I think J.D. Vance might be the biggest loser out of all of us, because J.D. Vance is doing all of this for only one reason, because J.D. Vance is doing all of this for only one reason,

because J.D. Vance wants to be president of the United States. And I'm telling you right now, I don't know when and if Donald Trump is going to give up power, but one thing he has decided already is that if there's ever going to be a president after Donald Trump, he wants to make sure it is never J.D. Vance. That is the reason why J.D. Vance is getting all these shit jobs that ruin his brand, because Donald Trump does not want his successor to be this man. And isn't it really interesting that the person who it seems as though folks

want to be the success to Trump Marco Rubio isn't negotiating the shit sandwich he's partying with the president I think that's by design I'll see you soon bye
