Bessent confirms XF's analysis, almost says the quiet part out-loud - that Trump plays to America's hardliners while also not actually pursuing a hardline path - Bessent says this about Iran, while also saying that the US has hardliners too (he does not group Trump as a hardliner!)

"The Iranians are masters of propaganda... the government is comprised of the three sleeves of Iranian government, elected officials, the IRGC, and the clerics ...

The negotiating team is from the government, and they are playing to a hardline audience back in Tehran.

Just like we have hardliners in our system, they have hardliners."
