The Ground Beneath His Feet…

Trump April 23: I contacted people "that have worked for me in the past, doing swimming pools," and one gave me a great price on the Reflecting Pool project

Trump May 4: "I have some very good contractors," asked three of them to "do me a favor fellas" and go look at the Reflecting Pool, and the best one gave me a great price

Trump today: The Reflecting Pool contract "went to a contractor I did not know, and have never used before"
... is getting smaller and smaller. And clearly Trump is using the long flight to prepare for his meetings with Xi: Trump don’t need no experts. Trump is a very stable genius.
And yet:
The UK and France chaired a meeting attended by 44 nations, including non-European nations, such as Bahrain, Australia, Japan, South Korea and others, on building out an international framework to provide security, through military means, for the Strait of Hormuz. However, Iran has responded by saying that any military framework enacted by international state-actors will be treated as an escalation by Iranian decision-makers.
Good to know the bombing of Iran, which Trump STILL has not resumed, was totally worth it.
New: Classified military intelligence assessments from early this month show Iran has regained access to most of its missile sites, launchers and underground facilities. Including: U.S. intel assesses Iran has restored operational access to 30 of the 33 missile sites it maintains along the Strait of Hormuz, and ~90% of Iran's underground missile sites are "partially or fully operational." w @Adamentous @maggieNYT
Wasn’t it? Or, with our munitions seriously depleted, is this why Trump keeps extending the ceasefire?
