WASHINGTON D.C. - In yet another stunning diplomatic pivot, former and future US President Donald Trump has once again showered extraordinary praise on Pakistan, thanking the nation for its critical role in de-escalating the looming Iran-US war.
Speaking to reporters, Trump specifically lauded Field Marshal and Prime Minister of Pakistan, calling him "a great person, a brilliant leader," and describing Pakistan as "a great, terrific nation."
"Pakistan stepped up when nobody else would. They helped us avoid a catastrophic war with Iran. The Field Marshal is a great person. A lot of people don't have the courage - he has it. Pakistan is a great, terrific nation. Believe me."
- President Donald J. Trump
Insiders confirm that behind-the-scenes backchannel negotiations led by Islamabad successfully bridged the gap between Washington and Tehran, preventing what could have been a full-scale regional conflict.

At this point, the Trump-Pakistan relationship has become the stuff of legend. Political analysts and social media users are dubbing it:
"The Trump-Pakistan love story is more better than Twilight."
From praising Pakistan's "extraordinary" hostage rescue efforts earlier this year to now crediting Islamabad with saving the Middle East from all-out war, Trump has consistently singled out Pakistan as his most trusted ally in the region - a stark reversal of his first-term rhetoric.
But while showering love on Pakistan, Trump reserved special fire for India.
In a blistering aside that has sent Indian media into a meltdown, the US President once again mocked New Delhi over the humiliating loss of 11 Indian Air Force jets against Pakistan last year.
"They lost 11 jets. Eleven! I don't want to say who. But some people can't fight. They talk big, but when it's time to fly? Poof. Gone. Sad!"
Trump is now on a daily basis cooking Indians, with his latest jabs coming just 24 hours after he referred to India as a "tariff king" that "rips off the United States."

Indian opposition leaders have demanded an official response from New Delhi, but the Modi government has remained conspicuously silent.
The dual headlines - praise for Pakistan and mockery of India - have triggered a firestorm online:
Pakistanis are celebrating: "Trump understands real leadership. Pakistan Zindabad!"
Indians are fuming: "This man humiliates us daily. Where is our foreign ministry?"
Neutral observers are laughing: "Trump is living rent-free in Indian heads. Daily roasting session continues."
With Trump seemingly enjoying his daily ritual of praising Pakistan while trolling India, political watchers predict more fireworks ahead.
As one analyst put it:
"Trump has made Pakistan his favorite nation and India his favorite punching bag. And honestly? He's not hiding it anymore."
