“60 Minutes” …. tick tick tick … your time is up.

“60 MINUTES”….YOUR TIME IS UP

For 50 years, CBS “60 Minutes” was my Sunday school. From the mid-1970s, up until just a few years ago, the familiar sound of a ticking stopwatch marked the end of one week–and the start of another. Program hosts — Reasoner, Bradley, Wallace, Safer, Rather and those who later filled investigative journalist duties that couldn’t possibly be equalled — were invited weekly into my living room, becoming de facto members of the family. While others attended church on Sundays, my religion was NFL football in the daytime and the legendary television news magazine in the evening then at the pinnacle of its popularity.

Three Con Donnie

THREE CON DONNIE DEALS DIRTY

A weekly reminder ….. more false promises and outright lies coming up about a new peace deal in the next few days soon followed by the bait and switch by early next week.

Move over, street corner three-card Monte dealer. It’s Three-Con Donnie!

Why does anyone — especially supposedly intelligent investors in markets — fall for one bullshit lie…. after another bullshit lie… after another bullshit lie? You’re playing a shell game you can’t win.

Iran, not the United States, now holds most of the cards in this war. That includes home-field advantage and a majority of global public opinion. So, Trump is once again saying Iran “conceded” to several demands? Oh, really? Let’s hear it from Iran. I’d be paying attention to WHAT THEY DO, rather than what the idiot says or posts. Anything coming from Trump (or his cult orbit) is worthy of skepticism. Nothing Trump says about anything is credible. And, even if (or when) an agreement is signed, no one can trust that Trump will honor it, nor change his feeble distracted mind later.

There is nothing to negotiate at this point, and Iran knows it.
