...they've been coming up with their own definitions for words.
So, they used "imminent" when they meant "unlikely". To them, it's the same thing.

Missing the sarcasm thingy. To point out how Trump lies. Could be wrong, let's hear from the o/p.

By "they" do you mean Trump? It's what he does. He's said a deal was imminent just before sending in more bombers.

Cuba is defiant, Russia messing with the nuclear plant in Ukraine. shithole says the California elections are rigged, and he just called a female journalist and her network "crooked".

shithole is not well both mentally and physically, and the alternative(s) is just as stupid and greedy.

"Shithole" is used to refer to countries. "Shitbag" is for the worst of presidents!

The Iranian strikes didn’t hurt anybody. Hopefully Israel is not going to retaliate. If Bibi strikes them back it’s just gonna keep going like the last 47 years, or the last 3000 years. We are very close to a final deal with Iran. It is going to be a good deal. I don’t want it to blow up because of what is happening now.
