    '"I have a message directly from the president: 'Based on the fact that
    there is a chance for substantial negotiations that may or may not take
    place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision on whether
    or not to go within the next two weeks,'" Leavitt said during the briefing.'

    'Trump's "infrastructure plan" became a meme during his first term. For
    years, they promised to have a proposal.

    “We’ve got the plan largely completed and we’ll be filing over the next two or three weeks -- maybe sooner,” Trump said, on April 29, 2017.

    Nothing was ever filed; rather, it was President Joe Biden who developed
    a landmark infrastructure package.'

    '"Two weeks is where promises go to die in Trumpland," noted lawyer Jas Easterly.

    He also recalled a 2020 Politifact report saying, “Trump has promised an Obamacare replacement plan five times so far this year. And the plan is
    always said to be just a few weeks away.” Americans are still waiting.

    The Tennessee Holler agreed, noting "'Two weeks' generally means 'never'
    in Trump speak."'

    You can be sure if the European leaders negotiate a settlement he'll try
    to take sole credit for it.

    When I was still working (as a programmer), the stock response when asked when a feature would be ready was "two weeks".

    Another popular response in the trade rags: "Real Soon Now".
