However, perhaps they should let Iran know:

"Iran says no new nuclear proposal, disputing Trump: ‘Confusing and contradictory’ messaging"

Per Bloomberg:

"Iran’s Khamenei Brands Trump a Liar in Escalation of Rhetoric"

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei accused US President Donald Trump of dishonesty and power abuse, marking the latest rhetorical flare-up between Tehran and the US.

“Trump said he wants to use power for peace; he lied,” Khamenei said in remarks aired Saturday on Iranian state television. “When have they ever used power to create peace?”

Khamenei’s remarks followed Trump’s tour this week of the Middle East, which included stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Speaking at an investment forum in Riyadh on Tuesday, Trump accused the Islamic Republic’s leadership of corruption and “stealing their people’s wealth” to fund terrorism.

“Some of the remarks made during the US president’s trip to the region aren’t even worth responding to,” Khamenei said. “The level of the statements is so low that they are a source of shame for the speaker and a source of shame for the American people.”

while most the U.S. media remains focused on trying to erase the accomplishments of the Biden Administration.
