Old trump Tweet from 2013 about Obama attacking Iran comes back to haunt trump

[Nostra]

You think Obama should have attacked Iran? Really?

He gave them pallets of cash and let the build nukes.

 

[westwall]

Same Obama ..pallets of cash

I wonder how much of that came back and landed in his pocket?

Nope, that's not what was said.

Your reading comprehension is failing you again. It's getting embarrasing

 

[struth]

What’s different about it?

In 2013 Iran's regime was on the verge of economic collapse. Their people had engaged in democratic protest....it was a perfect time, if you had a strong leader, or at least a leader that didn't support their terrorist, oppressive ways, to end the regime peacefully. Obama/Xiden instead bailed them out. Today, especially after four years of more bailing out by Xiden, they are much stronger, because of Obama failures, and that of Xiden, Israel was forced to attack.

Well then clarify please as that what you comment sounded like it was saying. Just replying with “nope” doesn’t progress the conversation.

I would argue that the ripping up of a multinational oversight agreement which we led gave them free rein to grow their nuclear program to a point that now may cause a war to address. Trump was president for 4 years. He certainly didn’t do anything to help the situation, IMO he did the opposite.

Obama released funds that belonged to Iran but had been frozen since the 70s in order to get prisoners released and moved towards a collaborative oversite deal.

That amount of money doesn’t move the needle when considering the grand scheme of nuclear development and war.

An agreement that had no bite you mean? Iran had absolute control over who could visit, and when.

In other words, there WAS no oversight.

According to your mischaracterization of it sure. But back in reality there was cooperation and oversight. Instead of trying to maximize it, Trump wanted to kill it because he was on a mission to reverse all things Obama…. Now look where we are. No more blaming Obama for this one. It’s on Trump

That isn't a mischaracterization. That is a fact. Iran could veto an oversight inspection, and even if they didn't veto they demanded advance notice of where the inspectors wanted to go.

The inspectors were escorted at all times and if the Iranians didn't want the inspector to go into a certain are, he couldn't.

The agreement was a joke.

Hey stupid, Iran dictated when and where inspections happened. They kept all their military sites off limits.

Barry got bent over and violated by the Mullahs.

Yes they could do that, So what? You don’t sweep nuclear weapons development under the rug and hid all traces. It’s not a big deal to make an appointment to do an inspection. If something fishy was happening and inspectors denied access then further action could be taken by us or our allies. At least we were in the door.

IRS does the same thing with audits and they still catch plenty of foul play.

That system is way better than no system like Trump degraded it to

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Obozo caved in to all the Iranian's demands which made the situation worse long term.

This is a crisis Trump created, the consequence of his incompetence and stupidity.

We think he shouldn’t had given them billions of dollars to fund their nuke program.

Unfreezing less than 2B of their own money doesn’t move the needle. Irans GDP is over $400B a year. You’re repeating meaningless talking points. Think for yourself

Another old tweet from Donald Trump has gone viral again, but for the wrong reasons.

As the president continued to ramp up his rhetoric against Iran, critics pointed to a November 2013 social media post where Trump accused then-President Barack Obama of planning to attack Iran.

“Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly—not skilled!” Trump wrote, when he was still a reality TV personality.

The resurfaced tweet sparked comments about irony, given Trump’s recent saber-rattling against Tehran.

trump always does or is preparing to do what he accuses others of doing. He is preparing to attack the underground Iranian reactor. trump has a hard time making up his mind. Unfortunately, the two people he is listening to are Miller and Netanyahu. They both have personal agendas that are based on their personal grudges or their effort to stay out of jail.

LOL I'm positive this tweet from 2013 is keeping him up at night

And fund Hamas and Hezbollah and the Houthis

The great negotiator has negotiated squat in his second term. TACO

We understand you hate Trump, but there is a system. And Iran got caught violating it.

Five months dude. He's negotiated more in five months than your vegetable did in 4 years.
