Travel pool note #6 // POTUS: “To me, I think it’s over” on Iran ceasefire

Trump, asked if the ceasefire is over / the MOU is dead: "To me, I think it's over."

"I don't want to deal with them, but they're scum. You know what scum is? They're scum, they're sick people, they're led by sick people, and they're vicious, violent people."

However, he says he will allow his negotiators to keep talking with Iranian negotiators.

"As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of time dealing with them. They're liars. We make a deal, and if I make a deal with him, we have a deal. He goes out, he talks. We make a deal. Everyone's agreed, no nuclear weapons. We make a deal. They go outside, talk to the press, they say we never even talked about it, is something wrong with them? They're cuckoo."

"Frankly, I don't want to waste my time with them. Now, I'll let our wonderful negotiators keep talking if they want, but I don't see it. I don't like these people."

Pool exited at 11:21 a.m. Please check all quotes against audio.
