By the media’s count, President Donald Trump had assured America 39 times that he was about to reach a peace deal with the Iranians. Networks were running montages of these similar-sounding assurances.

There were bombing attacks against the mullahs, who bombed U.S. targets in the region and shot down an Army helicopter, in a cycle of recrimination and retaliation that reduced the ceasefire to false advertising. Things seemed grim in the last few days when Trump called the Iranians "dishonorable," saying they leaked a draft agreement that bore no resemblance to what the two sides were actually discussing.
