Per Bloomberg TV: "trump said Washington is in the "final stage" with Tehran"

US crude fell to $98 on a report that President Donald Trump said Washington is in the “final stages” with Tehran. The S&P 500 broke a three-day losing streak. With Nvidia’s sales estimated to have grown at the fastest clip in more than a year, the shares led a rally in chipmakers. A rebound in Treasuries sent long-term yields down from the highest since 2007.

Trump said “we’ll see what happens” with Iran, adding that a deal will be made or “we’re going to do some things that are a little bit nasty, but hopefully that won’t happen,” according to a White House pool report.

“The only question is do we go in and finish it up, or are they going to be signing a document?,” Trump noted at a commencement ceremony, referencing the Iran conflict.

up Iran - 90 million.

Iran’s regime is cruel, but there millions who want to change to a more free society.

Here in the USA, shithole and republicans want a more of a dictatorship than Democracy.
