Trump Begs His Allies to Help Him Spin His Surrender

The 80-year-old president’s deal with Tehran, which he admitted to Axios he had signed largely due to flattery from France’s Emmanuel Macron, has been widely panned as a shocking surrender on Washington’s part, as it gives Iran major concessions without curbing the country’s nuclear ambitions.

The narrative distributed to Trump’s allies, however, claims that it “solved a threat Washington spent forty years managing,” according to Bloomberg.
