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!
Fascists don’t like facts.
I’ve said it before but that’s what Trump always does. He fucks up an existing situation (which may not be ideal in most cases, but then few things are), and after making everything worse for everyone, arrives at a so called deal that isn’t even half as good as the original one was.
And then there’s much rejoicing about how great he is.
Fucking middle-man for a president.
Somehow Marco Rubio is the smartest crayon in the box in the admin?!?!. The bar is low, so so so so incredibly low. It’s subterranean.
Marco Rubio has a contemptible level of cowardice.
This is a non sequitur/ad hominem, but here is the debate where Chris Christie, a fellow cunt, handed Rubio his arse.

Also remember that Chris Christie prepped Trump for his own debates.
These people should absolutely be imprisoned.
Hard agree.
Like 15 years ago I had a couple of conservative morons who lived next door to me try to convince me how great Marco Rubio was and how he would be excellent as president. And I just looked at them like they were the dumbest people I’d ever met in my entire goddamn life.
$300B LOSER fund. Its for reparations.
The Dempublicans and the Republicrats…doing their mutual tango for their common overlords.
Democrats need to go for the jugular and proclaim that Trump and the GOP have LOST the war with Iran. They need to force the point that with all the military might of the USA, the GOP was so incompetent, they lost.
Idk sounds like too easy of a win, what about running an unpopular plutocrat? Maybe Pelosi?
You want Dems to run to the right of Trump on Iran? 'Member when they tried that with the southern border?
The American right is all about pretending they didn’t lose. Short list of examples in cronological order:
- the civil war
- the great depression.
- the JFK / Nixon POTUS election
- the vietnam war
- the Afghanistan war
- the Biden / Trump election
Of course the USA lost this thing with Iran. We didn’t even state a clear goal and STILL wound up in a state where the absolute best we could hope to describe it is as a draw.
It isn’t running to the right to describe things factually. Reality, after all, has a well known left-wing bias.
And the Dems have a sordid history of trying to outdo Reps on ‘tough’ foreign policy. The lesson from the current conflict shouldn’t be: “Reps are too incompetent to win this war”, it should be: “our entire policy towards Iran (and Israel) has been a counterproductive disaster”.
Yes all correct but I still haven’t forgotten that Corey Booker tried to block cheaper pharmaceutical drug imports from Canada on some bullshit about safety, and I still hope he falls into a pit of starving giant toe biter bugs.
Last I checked Booker was also still voting as AIPAC wanted him to so his “quiet trouble” bullshit is exactly that: bullshit.
Who likes this guy? I mean really, does he have a legitimate constituency?
Really any pit would do. Let’s not be greedy.
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 not forget this is the president who got chummy with North Korea last administration. Really can’t be surprised after that.
