history of habitual lying.

However, after both countries reluctantly agreed to a ceasefire, it befuddles why some would continue to deny it.

By appearances, one might think that some would hope that it isn't valid or fails because it would give trump credit for it.

Of course trump created the situation in the first place by walking away from the Obama Iran nuclear deal, which I suspect most of the public has conveniently forgotten about.

but denying that a ceasefire was negotiated, with the help of Qatar, just because trump announced it, makes those pushing that line look quite silly.
