Little to nothing the administration has negotiated anywhere in the world has been honored.

Absolutely no one in the world should negotiate directly with us.

We used to send peace-keepers to negotiate tough situations.

Someone that both sides could trust.

The felon won't let anyone else get credit for anything so that won't happen

But it is definitely what needs to happen.

BTW- It looks like US troops may start their invasion this weekend (after the 5 day fake pause to control the stock market)

And recall that after each No Kings protests the orange shit stain does something dastardly and evil. (tear down the East Wing)
