Trump: Iran deal was so bad it’s suspicious
2016-01-04
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump says the nuclear deal with Iran is so bad, he is close to wondering whether it was done poorly on purpose.
The man says what a lot of people are thinking to themselves. That's a substantial part of his appeal right there...
“It’s almost like there has to be something else going on,” he said Saturday night at a rally in Biloxi, Miss. “I don’t think there is, I just don’t think they’re competent.”

Trump said he couldn’t believe the U.S. would agree to a deal with Iran that did not include the return of Americans held prisoner in Iran.

“Who would make that deal?” he asked, suggesting Tehran was celebrating as the agreement was being negotiated.

The billionaire businessman said American negotiators should have began the process by insisting on getting the prisoners back. He said Iran would have refused, but afterward, “you double and triple up your sanctions” and it would change Iran’s tune.

Trump pledged of the prisoners: “They will be out before I take office.”

And of Secretary of State John Kerry: “I can’t believe they didn’t walk from that negotiation.”

“People want, not that phony Obama change,” he added. “People want strength, they want competence.”

#5  Doesn't John Kerry have a daughter married to a prominent Iranian? Or was he just the best man at the wedding?

You could say the same about Fast and Furious, the IRS scandal, Gibson Guitar, Benghazi, the "Not-Affordable" Health Care Act which was not read prior to passing, and a whole host of other things associated with this administration. If one assumes the left and this administration thrives on chaos, it all makes sense. The left creates the problems and chaos and then promises people that they are the chosen ones to solve the chaos and problems.
