The New Jersey Democrat laid out how the U.S. had allowed Iran to sell an estimated $10 billion worth of sanctioned oil to China and then promised to further alleviate sanctions in return for releasing highly enriched uranium and committing to limiting its enrichment capacity.

“And that was the exact deal that you guys vilified, that the president and you vilified President Obama for having,” Booker said. Of course, Donald Trump’s deal is even worse than Booker says, as it reportedly includes a $300 billion investment fund for Tehran, in the event that a deal is reached.

$10 Billion to $300 billion. ART OF THE DEAL!

    They both refer to Iran as an enemy, with no potential relationship beyond war or shitty deal… Yet comfortably, the US is in good relations with other Middle Eastern nations, Israel, even China.

        Do Rubio and his cronies realise Florida is in range of Sahed drones launched from Cuba? Are they ready to see the first aerial bombing of an American city since Pearl Harbor?
