Once upon a time, Iran had a diplomatically-elected and popular leader who was deposed and replaced by the ruthless despot Shah of Iran who enriched himself by serving America instead of his “people”. A half a century later, we have learned nothing and are still dealing with problems of our own creation. Now, we will drive moderates to the hard-liners since we have proven to be a faithless partner at the bargaining table. Shameful.
If I ever had to shake hands with The Dumpsterfire, I would make sure to VERY obviously count my fingers right in front of him to make sure I got them all back!
Trump has made it clear to the whole world that deals with the US might as well be written on toilet paper as anything else, because that’s what they will end up being used for. I doubt that he has ever kept to any contract that he has signed in his entire life.
Breen, are you this blind? Really? While Trump tries to claim credit for Korean peace and is setting up a meeting, at the same time he shows he cannot be trusted at all! This deal was DONE, and was a major step forward for Middle East peace, and this moron eliminated our commitment to it purely out of spite for Obama and racism.
If we had metrics for measuring how good a president, rather than partisan feelings, we could objectively tell whether a president is good at his job or not.
I would use the ability to unify all Americans to a common goal — overcoming partisanship — as the first item to be evaluated.
let him govern. That’s what we did during O’s 8 years
a comment Sen. Mitch McConnelll made in an interview with the National Journal’s Major Garrett on Oct. 29, 2010: “The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president.”
In 2013, when a sarin nerve gas attack left more than 1,400 dead outside Damascus, President Barack Obama went to Congress to get approval to strike.
In a whip count from ThinkProgress, 183 Republicans were against bombing the country. Only 12 Republicans, including then-House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), sided with the president to launch a strike.
Trump has launched two “attacks” on Syria in about one year. Without congressional authorization.We know the reaction of republicans if Obama had done that.
That’s the tip of the iceberg on Republican obstructionism.
@ANDYLIT… You’re surprised he couldn’t get it through a gop-controlled congress? A GOP obstructionist controlled Congress???You must have truly and thoroughly been brainwashed by all the propaganda that has been put out by the GOP!!!
The hatred Trump has for the American people is astounding. I take breaks from the hater tweets, but when I come back, they’re still there and they’re still hate-filled. Suggestion: try governing. That’s what O wasn’t allowed to do during his 8 years, even though he was making our country great for once.
I think it’s funny how many Americans consider Iran’s government untrustworthy seeing as how it was the actions of the US government which led to the creation Iran’s government and it’s perceived hatred of the US.

The deal was done. We signed our names and national honour. Of course, that concept is beyond that psycho’s understanding.

Leave it to Donnie to renege on a deal. He’s been giving the shaft to his business associates for decades.

Trump is just here to get more oil to sell to the American people, or is that a mirror?

trump had (has) a thing about that black president and is doing what he can to remove that taint.

As opposed to the “deal” the President is going to make with the “honorable” Kim Jong Un.

Now, if it had been a Treaty, Trump couldn’t have…
What? Obama couldn’t get it through the Senate as a Treaty? Even Chuck Schumer was opposed to the deal? Oh. Never mind.

Yes, they’re serpents! First step: dehumanize the others, so that going to war (“exterminating those pests”) later can be justified more easily.
