Is this the biggest mistake of the trump era?

The JCPOA was as weak and worthless as the president who signed it.
Yes, well, that's the party line. But the facts tell a different story. The point at which you need to begin any discussion involving trump is to remember he is an ignorant, inveterate liar who lies pathologically. So nothing, NOTHING, he says can be taken at face value. He tore up the JCPOA because he wanted to undo every success Obama had. BTW, Obama wasn't alone in approving to the agreement. China, France, Russia, UK, US, plus Germany, along with the EU were signatories.

Yes! Because terrorist states always adhere to signed agreements.
 

Claim 17: The deal, if implemented, will expire after 10 or 15 years and allow Iran to build a nuclear weapon at that time.​

The Facts:

According to the comprehensive agreement, for at least 15 years, Iran will only enrich uranium up to 3.67 percent (uranium enriched at 20% or lower is considered low enriched uranium (LEU); uranium enriched above 90% is weapons grade.)

This does not, however, mean that on day one of year 16, Iran will have enough weapons-grade uranium to build a bomb. Yes, after 15 years Iran could begin enriching uranium beyond 3.67 percent. But without this deal, Iran could head for a bomb tomorrow.

Some aspects of the agreement will last 25 years, including the monitoring of Iran’s uranium mines and supply chain. Other aspects, such as the implementation of robust IAEA safeguards and access to investigate suspicious sites for illicit nuclear activity, are permanent. Regardless of what specific restrictions are lifted, Iran is still prohibited from pursuing nuclear weapons. Any activity that is clearly not intended for “peaceful use” (i.e. highly enriching uranium) will raise red flags and trigger a response from the international community.

Ultimately, the deal rolls back Iran’s nuclear program for more than a decade, pushing Iran’s “breakout time” (time it would take to enrich enough nuclear material for 1 nuclear weapon) from a few months to at least one year. It also gives IAEA inspectors greater insight for monitoring Iran’s nuclear program well into the future.
The JCPOA was i joke. We gave them $56,000,000,000 and they prevented inspectors from inspecting.

Trump was right as usual. No nuclear bombs, period.
 
That was funny! Dumb reporter asks stupid question, Trump handles it with great deftness.
Only decorum and self restraint prevented the Japanese PM from doing what she should have done. ***** slap the orange piece of shit and walk out.
 
The biggest mistake of the Trump era is not declaring democrats enemies of the state and wiping them out.
 

Iran Nuclear Deal: Debunking the Myths​

As members of Congress closely examine the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran, various assertions are being made. Some questions are based on legitimate concerns, while other claims made by opponents of the deal are based on fiction.

We are closely tracking both and offer the following responses, which will be updated regularly.

This war and its aftermath is a self-inflicted wound inflicted by a colossal error made by trump. Not that we've seen all of the consequences yet. It may be months or years before we do. Actions have been set in motion are beyond the control of any one person or country. The outcome is unpredictable.

Perhaps the only person who is getting what they want from this war (besides the shareholders of energy companies) is the war criminal known as Bebe. He must be hoping it will help him in the upcoming elections in Israel. He couldn't care less how many people die or how much is destroyed in pursuit of that goal. It's how he rolls. It's how his fellow war criminal rolls too.

Some critics, like John Bolton and Dick Cheney, have argued that the only way to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon is through the use of military action. This shortsighted and reckless approach would be counter-productive. As former director of the CIA Michael Hayden has explained, bombing Iran “will guarantee that which we are trying to prevent: an Iran that will stop at nothing to, in secret, develop a nuclear weapon.”

Taking military action, instead of implementing the current diplomatic solution, would shatter the international coalition that is applying economic pressure and force the United States to confront Iran without international support.

Even if a US bombing campaign were effective, it would need to be repeated every few years to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, resulting in a never-ending game of “nuclear program whack-a-mole.” Furthermore, we would not have the access or monitoring afforded to us under the agreement in order to detect covert facilities.

It is important to remember that implementing the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action does not take the United States military option off the table. If anything, it strengthens it by improving our understanding of the status and location of Iran’s nuclear program.
I've had several of the flock now tell me that the little squabble at the Strait of Hormuz is not our problem.

Once again demonstrating their proud, profound and aggressive ignorance of global macroeconomics.

I read it, then I just move on. It's pointless.

Just yesterday Dotard said it isn't our problem. That we don't use the Strait. That's an astonishing lack of awareness and ignorance. Even for him.
 
For the zillionth time, I can't tell if he's lying or just clueless.

I guess it's possible that's it both, no?
Quite often when he speaks he's able to block out reality in order to offer a defense of his idiotic policies in an unhinged stream of consciousness.
 
Americans paying over $4 a gallon for gas must be wondering why the regime worked so hard to kill EV's and push us towards an economy reliant on fossil fuels.

The answer............legacy energy companies have lots of money to give him.

Nonsense she loves Trump. When she met hinn she was all over him with hugs.

Reality is that the US doesn't get its oil from the Gulf of Hormuz, Asia does, China, Japan, South Korea.

AI Overview

Approximately 15% of total U.S. fertilizer imports originate from the Middle East and pass through the Strait of Hormuz, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation.

You're wrong almost as much as Dotard.

Reality is that oil is a global commodity which is why gas prices in the US are up about $1 since trump started his war despite the fact that we are a net exporter of oil.
