Summary

The President wants negotiations. Iran wants its nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz. Those two things cannot both be true at a negotiating table and yet here we are — stuck in a stalemate that neither side seems willing to break. Someone has to blink eventually. Our money is on — well, tune in and find out. In Texas Ken Paxton delivered a clear primary victory powered by Trump's endorsement and now faces Democrat Talarico in a general election that has already descended into the name calling and mudslinging that makes American political campaigns so exhausting and so entertaining at the same time. Nothing new there. All of it today straight and honest. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tom-sullivan-show--6632619/support .
