It doesn't matter if Iran has the upper hand is the US sanctions them anyway and Saudi Arabia already has the upper hand on us she is smarter about this.

Sanders was called a Russian agent over his vote against Russia/Iran sanctions but he was trying to the save the deal now the position is to forget the deal and go back to sanctions?

On Thursday afternoon, Senator Bernie Sanders voted against legislation to put new sanctions on both Russia and Iran. He voted for a Russia-only sanctions bill, but opposed the final bill’s inclusion of new sanctions on Iran because, like John Kerry, he feared it would endanger the 2015 nuclear deal.
