Trump Is Getting Destroyed By The Right For "Disaster" Iran Deal

The people on the right who have been some of Trump's biggest cheerleaders are calling the leaked details of a potential deal to end the Iran war a "disaster."

Those who waved the flag for Trump’s war with Iran may be starting to realize that they were duped.

After Axios reported on the basics of a memorandum of understanding that is being negotiated by the Trump administration and Iran:

Among other provisions, the deal would involve Iran committing to a moratorium on nuclear enrichment, the U.S. agreeing to lift its sanctions and release billions in frozen Iranian funds, and both sides lifting restrictions around transit through the Strait of Hormuz.

Many of the terms laid out in the memo would be contingent on a final agreement being reached, leaving the possibility of renewed war or an extended limbo in which the hot war has stopped but nothing is truly resolved.

Apparently, what Trump meant by peace through strength was not what his supporters thought it meant. Trump’s definition seems to be starting a war, then quitting on it, and giving the opponent everything they wanted when the war gets difficult.

The framework that might be agreed upon will lead the United States to reimplement the Obama Iran nuclear deal, with Iran being much stronger and the US being weaker than when Obama was in office.

Some of Trump’s allies seem very unhappy with what could be the deal.
