Trump threatens to scrap Iran deal

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/oct/13/trump-iran-nuclear-deal-congress

Because why have one nuclear proliferation threat when you can have two?

Why is he scrapping the deal?

Has Iran been complying 100%?

There haven't been any serious breaches as far as I can tell.

Yeah because Iran was our "FRIEND" under Obama....

"So if I can cram this whole thing in my Mouth and keep giving you guys Billions of Tax Payer Dollars You'll be My Friend!?"

"Yeah Yeah Sure Buddy...Keep CRAMMING! You can do it!"

😕

🙄

What does this mean, war?

Does this mean there have indeed been some breaches though?

Because he needs a new boogeyman to keep his supporters interested. 🙁

Iran has a long history of human rights violations so it isn't farfetched to think they may have breached some of the conditions in the deal.

In 2016 they twice exceeded their heavy water by less than one percent, which was rectified both times.

My thoughts exactly. 👆

So you are ok with Iran even with its Gross Human Rights Violations? Like how Homosexuals are treated Benny?

Why doesn't just scrap said deal instead of trying to play mind games with congress?

If you want to do something as president, then do it and face the consequences, don't try shifting responsibility to someone else.

Because that ins't how Politics works.

Human Rights Violations are just one example. We could also discuss economic reasons (he did do a big popular campaign about putting America First) or practicality of the deal. Is the deal even finalised? These issues are complicated and Obama had issues with Iran too. There are also political points to discuss.

Jimmy Carter negotiated the Panama canal to the Panamese people and Reagan completely reversed it. History is simply repeating itself.

Trump could have decertified the deal, he chose not to, the only reason he's trying to intimidate congress into doing it is he doesn't want to have to deal with the political backlash that would potentially be involved,

Congress needs to have its balls put to the fire. Bunch of Spineless Liars and Backstabbers the lot of em. Both Dems and Repubs.
