Trump and Iran: Negotiations or Strategic Setup?

Is Trump setting a trap for Iran, or is Iran playing Trump? Daniel Seaman cuts through the confusion surrounding the reported U.S.-Iran Memorandum of Understanding and argues that what looks like chaos may actually be a calculated strategy. Viewers will learn why President Trump's seemingly contradictory actions could be part of a deliberate campaign of "weaponized unpredictability," how Israel's recent military successes have reshaped Iran's deterrence calculations and why Tehran may have failed in its efforts to intimidate Israel, protect Hezbollah and divide Jerusalem from Washington. Seaman explores the geopolitical stakes of the proposed deal, the future of Iran's nuclear program and whether the current negotiations are genuine diplomacy or a setup for a much larger confrontation. Along the way, he offers lessons on media narratives, strategic deception and the importance of distinguishing panic from reality...leaving viewers with a thought-provoking question: is the real battle being fought on the battlefield, or in the minds of those trying to understand what comes next?
