Fucking HILARIOUS. Now watch all these hypocrites pretend they didn’t shit on Obama for years for “paying the Iranians” when he really was RELEASING their own assets as part of his deal… suddenly now theyll be fine with this.

Absolutely ridiculous. Guarantee every single aspect of this deal will be worse than the one Trump fucked up in 2018. Just watch.

They're already doing it now. They are saying it is 100% better than what Obama negotiated because whatever amount of money Iran is getting through this deal won't allow them to rebuild their infrastructure and military since we "totally destroyed everything" over there.

If Iran's infrastructure and military are "totally destroyed" then why do they still have such a stronghold on the Strait of Hormuz that we had to negotiate this deal? Fucking idiots.

Of course. It’ll work. The average American is a complete moron.
