Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy (La.) on Wednesday slammed the deal between the Trump administration and Iran, two days before the two sides are set to sign it.

“The details that I’ve seen so far look … awful. This will go down as a tremendous foreign policy blunder,” Cassidy told Nexstar’s Reshad Hudson on Capitol Hill.

3. Blunder?

It's a capitulation, an admission of committing a major clusterfuck and realizing there is no other way to get out of it but throwing an obscene amount of taxpayer money at it.

16. A great big taxpayer-funded "T.A.C.O." !!!!!!

I been eating a lot of home-made tacos lately---
the meat consisting of about half and half beef from pre-made hamburgers,
and Mexican chorizo sausage purchased from a Mexican food market
which I can walk to from home, but it is a hard walk...

(Also, they offer a good amount of fresh food I can't get from the Dollar General which I can see from my front porch:
Fresh Lettuce, tomatoes, onions and bananas which I have been purchasing there..)


Anyway, my tacos seem less good, lately..... don't know why

6. It won't get any better with trump in office.

It could only get worse, because he'll just try more bullying or extortion since that IS his " art of the deal".

11. More like The Art of Who Dealt It

As in:
“Who smelt it, dealt it”

… as my kids would say

17. Trump's deals are mostly "The Art of the Steal."

He learned corruption and dishonesty from his father but seems to also have a psychotic need for violence and vengeance. I remember one way Fred Trump cheated on taxes, as reported in the NYT a few years ago, was to have a fake company buy replacement equipment for the apartments he owned (washers, dryers, etc.), which he would then "sell" at a large markup to his real estate business and claim larger tax deductions than the actual cost. Trump has elevated the art of the steal far beyond Fred Trump's corrupt deals.

7. If only there was some type of system of checks and balance.

8. The only way out after the monumental "blunder" of waging this criminal war.

Which was proceeded by the insanity of shredding the JPCOA.

From the first weeks of his lunatic, criminal war, the ONLY way out was surrender and reparations.

12. This administration claim they are relying on handshake agreements rather than the text.

Ambassador Wendy Sherman was just on with Lawrence O'Donnell explaining how terrible the deal is and why they can't be trusted to negotiate a nuclear deal.

13. Policy blunder, yep, but, good defection from Epstein Files for a while.

14. Fuck him and every other enabler

They’re all sycophants and suck ups.

I can’t even stand their made up bullshit criticisms. It’s all cover and they absolutely know it.

[wolfie001]

15. They sure pretend to be appalled when nothing is on the line for them

Spineless weasels. Cowards.

18. So this huge amount of money that is changing hands...

I wonder if Mr. Trump will end up with any of it in his pocket after he leaves office? With Trump, there's always an angle, and I'm thinking that money is the angle!
So if I agree to give you $300 billion, how much of it will I see come back to me?
I think once more, the treasury is being robbed blind, and you know who will be the recipient
