Analyst astounded by Trump's latest hoodwink 'deal' with Iran: 'How lame is that?'

A veteran political analyst rained scorn on President Donald Trump's peace agreement with Iran.Iranian officials have announced they reached a memorandum of understanding with the U.S. to end fighting on all fronts, and they said the agreement will be signed on Friday, but The Bulwark's Will Saletan joined the chorus of criticism of the terms Trump administration officials had negotiated.Oh, so wait – so this big win that Trump and [Defense Secretary Pete] Hegseth promised that Iran was going to sign, a document promising not to get a nuclear weapon. We already had that in the Obama deal. Huh, and and what was that at the end where Hegseth said there will be negotiations to make it final? You mean this this document that we're signing? It isn't even the deal, it's just a a deal to make another deal.So wait a minute – we went to war and we spent all that money and we got American service members killed and we're all paying way more for gas just to get a promise, a promise from Iran to make another promise? he added. How lame is that?Hegseth insisted Sunday that the deal reached by President Barack Obama's administration put Iran on the path to a nuclear weapon and praised Trump's deal as a barrier to those ambitions, and UN ambassador Mike Waltz touted the agreement as a strong deal.So there it is again, Saletan observed. The details he says are going to get worked out in in the next round of negotiation, so this isn't a wall. This is a promise from Trump and his flunkies that somewhere down the road Iran is going to let us build we're going to build a wall. It it's like um do you remember when Trump said Mexico was going to pay for the wall on our southern border? I mean this is just like that. It's just an empty promise except this time there isn't even going to be a wall. - YouTube www.youtube.com
