Trump calls for new nuclear deal while bashing old one with misinformation

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Before Donald Trump even said "good morning" in a televised address responding to Iran's strikes on U.S. targets, he announced, "As long as I am president of the United States, Iran will never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon."

It's an often-repeated line from him, but there was one change in U.S. policy Wednesday: Trump called for other world powers to abandon the nuclear accord, which is barely surviving after he withdrew the U.S. in 2018 and Iran has unraveled its cooperation since 2019.

Instead, Trump urged those countries that remain in the deal to pursue negotiations over a new Iran nuclear deal. But in doing so, he attacked the existing one with misinformation -- and analysts say any new negotiations are unlikely because of Trump's maximalist approach to Tehran.

Instead of laying out a road map for talks, Trump took the time on Wednesday to bash the previous deal, saying, "Iran's hostilities substantially increased after the foolish Iran nuclear deal was signed in 2013 and they were given $150 billion, not to mention $1.8 billion in cash."

Mr. Fart at the meal.

1. They were not 'given' $150B, at least not in the common sense of the word ...

They were allowed to actually take possession of $150B ... of what was already their own money.

It's kinda like saying you were 'given' the amount contained in your 401K ... when you turned 65.

Yeah, SORT OF ... but not really.

But of course, he IS Mr. False or Misleading, so ... what else would we expect?
