So, the deal is "done," except that...

It's scheduled to be signed on Friday (sorry felon, no birthday signing for you, which I'm sure you pushed for harder than any other condition).

And more "meetings" to "lay the foundation for the technical talks and official signing ceremony."

My take? The big blubbery baby man forced Pakistan to make this announcement of the "not actually a deal yet, but lets pretend it is" so he could claim "victory" on the date this earth was cursed with his birth in 1946.

I think it will all fall apart, particularly as the felon is ridiculed and humiliated all week as leaks of the actual terms of surrender in this "deal" paint a giant L for Loser on his forehead.
