better keep some spew bags handy!!

"Imagine the president of the United States of America sitting in the White House Situation Room with his top national security advisers and deciding that there are not enough threats to US national security. There are not enough wars and humanitarian crises around the world. The United States is bored. Imagine the president deciding to manufacture a new national security crisis that will directly threaten America, its allies and the world.

Sounds like the work of fiction, right? Unfortunately, not. President Trump announced his decision for the United States to violate the diplomatic agreement that is currently preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon – and with that decision Trump produced a new, unnecessary crisis."


It would seem his hatred for Obama is clouding his judgement, he will destroy everything Obama did in office without checking to see if maybe some things Obama did actually benefits the USA and the world.

Crap , Saudi Arabia ,UAE and Bahrain welcome Trumps pullout , well know for their opposition to the Obama deal .

If the "DEAL" were so good,how come Obama didn't go to Congress with it?

You mean like Trump did, to cancel it?

cancel something that didn't exist?
Obama knew he couldn't get it through the Senate,but what he didn't knew was that Madame Hillary wouldn't make it to the WH!
For it to be legally binding on the US,it has to be ratified by the Senate,otherwise it is just another one of Obama's Pipedreams!
And with Kerry "Negotiating" the "Whatever" it was doomed anyway,just another way to kick the can further down the Road!

You obviously don't understand American Political decision making. Understandable for someone living in a confused part of Europe.
"WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats delivered a major victory to President Obama when they blocked a Republican resolution to reject a six-nation nuclear accord with Iran on Thursday, ensuring the landmark deal will take effect without a veto showdown between Congress and the White House.

A procedural vote fell two short of the 60 needed to break a Democratic filibuster. It culminated hours of debate in the Senate and capped weeks of discord since the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China announced the agreement with Iran in July.

The debate divided Democrats between their loyalties to the president and to their constituents, animated the antiwar movement on the left and exposed the diminishing power of the Israeli lobbying force that spent tens of millions of dollars to prevent the accord.

“Regardless of how one feels about the agreement,” Senator Chuck Schumer, one of four Democrats to vote against Mr. Obama, said on the Senate floor, “fair-minded Americans should acknowledge the president’s strong achievements in combating and containing Iran.”

Acknowledging the tortured road he and other skeptical Democrats traveled, Mr. Schumer said, “I also have a great deal of respect for the careful thought and deliberation my colleagues went through,” adding, “I recognize for them that this is a vote of conscience just as it is for me.”

Mr. Obama’s triumph in securing the deal — without the support of a single member of the party now in control of Congress — is refashioning the definition of victory for a waning presidency in the era of divided government."

so,in short,it wasn't a Senate-approved Treaty!
