He ran on a platform of fixing Obamacare. How is making it implode fixing it? And more importantly what is his plan after it implodes? These are peoples lives were talking about, people he is supposed to protect. As to the Iran deal. Lets just suppose your right and they are secretly working on it, something Trump can't prove, how is reneging on them in any way good? At best it increases animosity with yet another unfriendly nuclear power. While at the same time pissing of, and so hurting relations with other ones? Thanks for at least trying to answer the premise of the OP. You are the first conservative who has shown the balls to do so.So Trump is using these tactics again. Today he decided to gut ACA trying to force the Democrats to work to repeal and replace a key legislative accomplishment of Obama and he decided too decertify the Iran deal in a gambit to force the international community to change the terms on a deal to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons. Lets look at this a bit. He's trying to blackmail the Democrats to comply to his wishes on the treat of letting people die and he's trying to blackmail the world under the treat of letting Iran get the bomb. Do any conservatives have a problem with this? Or better yet do any conservatives think it a bad idea? What leverage do you imagine someone has who is unreliable not to mention immoral? The Democrats are not gonna commit political suicide to give Trump a win. And Iran is not going to renegotiate a bill that they haven't broken in any way because the US had an election cycle. Especially considering that the other countries who signed the bill still consider them in compliance. What leverage does he think he has??
Treat? Trump ran for election on fixing ObamaCare...why are you shocked that he's now attempting to do just that? As for the Iranians? Why do you think rolling over and playing dead is prudent foreign policy when the end result will be an Islamic fundamentalist nation who has supported worldwide terror for decades getting the bomb?
Anyone that thought the Iranians would EVER be in compliance with that treaty is so naive that it makes me shake my head in disbelief!
