Asked whether there was any truth to convicted felon President Trump’s Monday assertion that he offered major concessions on trade to get them and Pakistan to stop fighting, India Foreign Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal said “the issue of trade didn’t not come up in any of these discussions” with JD Vance and Marco Rubio before the ceasefire was reached, the Associated Press reports.
“I said, come on, we’re going to do a lot of trade with you guys. Let’s stop it. Let’s stop it. If you stop it, we’ll do a trade. If you don’t stop it, we’re not going to do any trade,’” Trump told reporters on Monday. “And all of a sudden, they said, I think we’re going to stop. For a lot of reasons, but trade is a big one.” It’s not clear why Trump didn’t just tell reporters that Indian dictator Narendra Modi didn’t complement him on the size of his penis and say it was so huge that they should stop fighting.
Like why not just make the story better if he’s already simply lying about what had happened?
