Trump Says We're Close to an Iran Deal

**Hammer** (0:00)
Hammer and Nigel.

**Nigel** (0:01)
You believe these characters?

**Hammer** (0:02)
They're weirdos.
Well, Hammer, I got really good news for you. Donald Trump, our president, saying we are very close to an Iran deal. Can you believe it? Have you heard this before? Because I don't think I've ever heard this before. In fact, Donald Trump's saying yesterday, an agreement could come as soon as this weekend with the United States and Iran and the ceasefire and ending everything.

**Nigel** (0:24)
First, the job I apply for says they'll keep my information on file. And now, Donald Trump says we're getting close to the end.
I'll be damned.

**Hammer** (0:34)
I'd like to place a bet on, what is it, Polly market, you know, where you can. Right. Like, where can you really, do we really expect everything to end this weekend?

**Nigel** (0:45)
Narrator.

**Hammer** (0:46)
What are the odds?

**Nigel** (0:47)
No.
How many times does Lucy have to put the football down for Charlie Brown to kick it and take it away before we stop trying to kick the football? Like, that's where we're at right now. Right. How many times have we heard? Oh, it could be any moment. Deal is imminent. It could be today. Could be this weekend. Get ready. Everybody's going to hold hands and sing kumbaya.
And then it doesn't happen.

**Hammer** (1:18)
And I mean, I hope it does.

**Nigel** (1:20)
Well, I do too.

**Hammer** (1:21)
I hope it does. But it's just are you saying Charlie Brown is Donald Trump here in this situation? That's pretty heavy.

**Nigel** (1:28)
No, Donald Trump is Lucy. Donald Trump keeps putting the football down, telling us it's OK for you to kick it.

**Hammer** (1:35)
And we're and takes it away.

**Nigel** (1:37)
We're Charlie Brown. We try to go kick the football, i.e. buy into the peace deal, and the football gets taken away and we fall on our ass. That's what happens.

**Hammer** (1:48)
OK, I got it.

**Nigel** (1:49)
Here is the president of the United States, Lucy.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:55)
The negotiation itself is going very well, actually.
Very well. Mr. President, If it happens, and it might not happen, yeah, who knows?

**Hammer** (2:02)
Yeah, maybe.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:03)
But if it happens, it could happen, like over the weekend. If we can get something done in writing, which will accomplish the same thing without killing everybody, I'd like to do that.

**Hammer** (2:12)
If I could just get a signature, then I won't have to kill 90 million people.
I won't have to start bombing the crap out of Iran. If I just get a couple signatures on a piece of paper, we can avoid all that.

**Nigel** (2:24)
So the options here are peace deal by the weekend, we have to start killing everyone again.
Those are the options that have been presented to us from President Donald Trump. Like, I'm okay with that, that's okay, but if you want me to get excited for the possibilities of a peace deal, I'm not going to do it. Like, we're the dude in the friend zone right now. You can't keep leading me on and then not giving me the poon and expecting me to stick around. I'm out. I'm out.
Now, Trey Yanks, who covers all things Middle East for Fox News, he jumped on the air today with the latest on rumored beef, rumored bad blood between Donald Trump and Bibi Netanyahu. This was stemming from that report that Trump got pretty angry with him on the phone and dropped a few f-bombs.

**Trey Yanks** (3:21)
President Trump called Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu f-ing crazy. And that was because these two world leaders have a different path forward, a different vision on what should come next. Broadly speaking, President Trump is looking to end the war in the aftermath of the success of Operation Epic Fury that decimated the Iranian military and, of course, the country's Navy. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to reports, would like to continue the operation. And so they still have a very respectful relationship based on the conversations we've had with both US and Israeli officials, but oftentimes they may disagree on the path forward about how to obtain some of the broader regional goals that both of these leaders have. There's been a lot of success, though, on the issue of Israel and Lebanon. And President Trump has indicated he would like to see these two issues separated. And so the negotiations with Iran are one issue, and then this broader effort toward a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon, another.

**Hammer** (4:18)
Do you think it's a respectful relationship with Donald Trump right before he gets on Marine One, turns around talking about Israel and Bibi Netanyahu and tells a reporter, they don't know what they're doing. It turns around and storms off.
