Trump TACOs Again, as Predicted Here!

(And probably as predicted in many other places by now.)

‘Twas only yesterday that I wrote

There is just so much winning! Actually, I can tell you one kind of winning that has a good chance of playing out in the next couple of days. It is now widely known that every time Trump makes a big announcement like today, very large inside trading moves appear in the stock market 15-30 minutes before his announcement. So, maybe Trump & Co. shorted the market in all the right places before the announcement today, and then will buy many stocks in 24-48 hours because Trump will announce another 2-3 day horizon for deal #39. He and his will make bank twice in about forty-eight hours … again. Somebody is doing it. We don’t know who, but we do know large bets are being placed just in time every time.

So much winning!

(See “Trump Accidentally Tells Truth, Market Tanks and Oil Banks.”)

And, so, as predictable as rain in the Pacific Northwest, Trump suddenly TACOed to create today the 39th lie about Iran making a deal soon now, which should provide a short reversal for markets where he and his, if they are so disposed, can benefit by making the trade in the opposite direction of yesterday, which is why I also wrote,

And to think I saw someone say again today how benevolent Trump is to continue to work as president and not collect his salary! When you have the choicest throne in the world for making pronouncements to benefit insider traders plus supreme-court-granted “total immunity” for everything you do as an official action, who needs a paycheck when you can make bank off proclamations of war and peace?

Far bigger money is being made each day than the president’s annual salary by whatever people are making these large, precisely timed trades just ahead of his major announcements.

And today’s announcement is:

US President Donald Trump has cancelled planned strikes against Iran tonight. It comes hours after he threatened more bombings on the Middle East.

And here was the exact wording of the instant-replay lie that was issued this morning:

Trump wrote on Truth Social: “Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening. Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, and others

Note that his final list includes everyone but Iran, the one party that most has to agree and that has in all 38 previous lies been nowhere near ready to make a deal. In fact, Iran almost always comes right out and says there was no deal on the table on the same day the president announces that a deal is one 2-3 days off. Maybe they weren’t in the list because he started off by saying they approved it, but we know if that were the case, the deal would be done. This time, notice, he did not deploy his usual language that says the deal is imminent or that Iran is anxious to make a deal. Is that part of the lie, after 38 total fails for the former lies, getting harder to pitch?

He obviously makes all this stuff up as he goes. That doesn’t matter to him because it works splendidly for all the insider trades that have been reported.

As I also said yesterday, Iran will decide when the war is over, and it has already said it will launch serious reprisals for Trump’s latest attacks. The article continues,

The two previous nights have seen back-and-forth strikes between the US and Iran as the conflict continues. Trump said he intends to take Kharg Island, a five-mile-long coral island, north of the Strait of Hormuz “at some point in the not too distant future”.

So, before the next 24 hours is over, my next prediction is that we’ll see Iran say it is not interested in making any deal with the Don, and then, to prove its point, as in the past, it will make the reprisal attacks to those Trump made that night before, which it has already promised will be bigger and broader than its recent forays.

Today, it announced that Elon Musk’s businesses in the ME will also be on the target list.

And, there it is! Prediction fulfilled already!

I just got the last sentence above finished, then had to rush back to my regular job on an extra-busy day at 11:30 AM PDT (2:30 PM EDT), three hours earlier than I usually have to return for my split shift. It was nonstop work from then through a pre-scheduled dinner engagement, so I didn’t get back to do the proofreading on this editorial until this evening, whereupon I saw the following update had posted.

UPDATE 2:52 PM EDT --

Iran publicly and vehemently DENIES there is __any__ agreement with the U.S.

Israel reports that they have not been updated and do not currently recognize that an agreement has been reached.

Iranian source close to the negotiating team tells Fars News Agency (Iran) that Iran has NOT approved any text for an initial memorandum of understanding with the U.S. The denial comes after Trump claimed Iran had agreed “at the highest level” to such a text, and later said the document had been finalized. (“Is this Trump’s 31st peace deal’?”)

So, nobody that matters among “all the parties of the agreement” ever saw the agreement. What a liar! Being questioned about such fake announcements is what caused baby Trump to storm of the interview stage the other day.

I suppose I should not get points for this prediction, though, because it was as easy as falling off a horse, yet I hadn’t read anyone else stating it as an actual prediction, though I’m sure many would have been able to make it, had they the audacity. The hard part for me was not the prediction. (And maybe I just missed the articles that did state it as a prediction.) The hard part for me is believing how many people are STILL so incredibly and intentionally stupid, they keep falling for his endless repetition of lies.

The story continues with further confirmation of everything I wrote about his announcement of a retreat today and his announcement of more attacks yesterday.

Iranian media:

The Islamic Republic news agency Tasnim: “Another Trump retreat, once again justified by claims of progress in the negotiations. Over the past two months, Trump has declared 38 times that an agreement was within reach and on the verge of being signed. In the span of just three days, he has ‘sent his vice president to Pakistan’ four times in his imagination”

Hal Turner Personal Opinion

One cannot discount the reality that upon this “announcement” by President Trump, stock Markets that had been losing value all day, suddenly turned around and skyrocketed. It appears to many people the President’s remarks are Market Manipulation….

So right on every part of that prediction. They become fulfilled so quickly I can’t write and then proofread fast enough on a busy day to get the article published ahead of the fulfillment of the claims! It’s just that predictable. (I left everything in the preceding section exactly as I wrote it, other than the typo corrections made during this proofread before publication.)

The primary reason I try to give so many of my perspectives as predictions then note every time they are fulfilled is to help people realize they can trust the perspective or, at least, that they should give it serious thought, because it may be hard to trust these perspectives when so often they run counter to what you are hearing in the mainstream press and sometimes even in the alternative press and almost always to what you are hearing the present president say is going to happen!
