Trump Claims He Got 'Unconditional Surrender' From Iran

[CatWoman]

President Donald Trump told Marc Caputo of Axios on Thursday that the U.S. had bombarded Iran into “unconditional surrender.” His remarks came a day after he signed a memo of understanding meant to end the current war.

Pundits and politicians from across the political spectrum have panned the deal as being too lenient on Iran. Some of the loudest criticisms have come from the right.

In the interview, Caputo asked Trump what he had learned about presidential power:

CAPUTO: What have you learned about, not just the exercise of power, but the limits on your power as a result of the conflict?

TRUMP: There are no limits.

CAPUTO: No limits?

TRUMP: No, none. I haven’t learned that lesson yet. I know there are. But you know, there are no limits. We defeated them totally militarily.

[…]

CAPUTO: At the beginning of the conflict, you had talked about, you only wanted unconditional surrender. And–

TRUMP: Well–

CAPUTO: The [memorandum of understanding] doesn’t look like unconditional surrender.

TRUMP: Well, it really probably is unconditional surrender.

CAPUTO: It is?

TRUMP: I think so.

Unconditional surrender is when one or more parties in a war surrender without receiving anything in exchange and fully submit to the other side.

1. That is a MIRROR, not a WINDOW, you demented dumbass!

2. "I'll pay you $300 billion if you let me say you surrendered unconditionally"

[gab13by13]

4. It was 324 billion,

now I hear it's up to 500 billion.

Krasnov removed the sanction on Iran so that it now is a member of the International banking community. Krasnov now can transfer money to Iran with no one being the wiser.

This is why President Obama had to send Iran pallets of money instead of a wire transfer, Iran was banned from the International monetary community, Krasnov removed that sanction.

8. Who would begrudge Donnie his $24 billion or $200 billion cut or whatever it is?

3. More proof he is not tethered to reality.

NOT EVEN CLOSE

6. When Trump arrives in hell he will tell the Devil

That it's not hot and he's not there.

5. In Krasnov's mind it was an unconditional surrender

because at this stage of the war all that Krasnov wanted was the price of crude to drop and the price of gas to drop.

Gas is headed under $4/gallon for the 4th of July. Krasnov got what he wanted.

14. Yeah, and the bill for that price tag is gonna be half a trillion dollars.

And then a month from now, Marco can talk him into doing Cuba, and he can light another half a trillion dollars on fire.

7. Whatever you say, Big Brother.

9. This thing he does, where he believes that something becomes true just because he says it's true,

isn't working any more. Instead, he sounds like he's completely insane.

10. Trump thinks he would have won the Vietnam War too.

Trump is one stupid sob.
