Not surprisingly, Obama nailed it.

[IM2]

Iran had to be notified in advance of an inspection making them worthless. Obama was a total fool

Lie.

 

[IM2]

Democrat accusations without showing the facts is all you got.

That's all you guys ever do.

 

[markef]

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

The financial crisis was caused by private mortgage lenders and private investment banks and private investors.

Not government.

Claiming lowering lending standards had nothing to do with the explosion of risky home mortgages is a sign of ignorance.

 

[markef]

Which regulations were removed that allowed so many crappy mortgages to be created?

The 2000 deregulation of mortgage lending, particularly the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, allowed commercial banks to engage in investment banking operations, which contributed to the subprime mortgage crisis. This deregulation led to the expansion of risky mortgage products, such as adjustable-rate mortgages and interest-only loans, which were marketed aggressively to high-risk borrowers. The lack of regulatory oversight and the relaxation of underwriting standards by the federal housing agencies, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, further exacerbated the situation. The financial industry's reliance on the shadow banking system, which was not subject to the same regulatory controls, also played a critical role in the crisis. The FDIC and other regulators have since implemented reforms to strengthen the financial system and prevent future crises.

The government doesn’t set lending standards for private institutions.

After trump's ill-fated, reckless decision to withdraw from the JCPOA, eventually causing this war, he said he would negotiate a better deal. He failed. With the US imposing heavy economic sanctions on Iran, the offer of lifting sanctions being what brought it to the negotiating table in the first place, it announced it would withdraw from the agreement on May 8, 2019. Exactly 1 year after Don essentially killed it.

A timeline of tensions over Iran's nuclear program as talks with U.S. approach

Iran and the United States are due to hold new talks in Geneva on Thursday over Tehran's nuclear program.

In response, Obama made a prediction.

Trump says U.S. pulling out of ‘rotten’ nuclear deal​

The move makes good on Trump’s insistence that the deal was too generous, allowing Iran to keep a mostly dormant nuclear program that Trump said could quickly produce a nuclear bomb once the deal’s provisions expire in the middle of the next decade.

But it further strains relations with key European allies, who have spent months urging Trump to sustain the agreement. It also came over the opposition of China and Russia, which were also parties to the 2015 deal.

And it drew an unusual public rebuke from former President Barack Obama himself, who invoked the specter of military conflict.

“Without the [Iran deal], the United States could eventually be left with a losing choice between a nuclear-armed Iran or another war in the Middle East,” Obama said in a lengthy statement.

Many former Obama administration officials suspect that Trump’s decision was, in part personal — that he was motivated by a desire to gut Obama’s foreign policy legacy. Obama aides, including former Secretary of State John Kerry, spent years pushing sanctions and hundreds of hours painstakingly negotiating the deal over some 18 months, and Trump’s decision left some of them dejected.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, meanwhile, said he had ordered his foreign minister to begin negotiating with other countries to salvage the deal, according to The Associated Press. He added that if those talks fail, Iran will once against enrich uranium “more than before … in the next weeks.”

But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — a vociferous critic of the deal who calls Iran an existential threat to his country — praised Trump’s “bold decision.”

Naturally, trump apologists have made all manner of factually incorrect allegations about the agreement made in 2015 designed to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. They amount to nothing more than a parroting of trump's lies about the adequacy of the JCPOA. Ultimately, Obama's comments following the withdrawal have proven to be prescient. So too Hillary's comments about trump's lack of fitness to lead the nation. If only we had listened.

Trump was correct Iran made fool out of obama

A distinction with no difference. Shuffling cards. Taxpayers lost billions bailing out the auto companies.

You keep failing to appreciate the long and short term damage to the economy, and thus to taxpayers, had the auto companies fallen in to bankruptcy.

Lock this country down then, and dry it up. The border was the start. It needs to go way farther.

More focus needs to put on the ports of entry.

As you continue to spread the lie to cover for your idol Trump who can do no wrong

Iran ended its nuclear program and was verified by international inspectors.
All said Iran was in compliance

The reason Iran has a nuclear program is because Trump let them
The reason the Strait of Hormuz is closed is because of Trumps disastrous decisions

Um GM still fell into bankruptcy even with the bailout

Obama’s bailout didn’t prevent that.
