Thank you Gronda for putting this post together, because I for one, am too furious to gather together anything coherent. For the sole reason of pleasing his base and taking another knock at President Obama, Trump has just imperiled the entire world. While this decision isn’t surprising, it’s no less reprehensible.

Today’s the day, 8th day of May 2018, when the republican President Donald Trump plans to announce his intent to have the US back out of the 2015 Iran Nuclear deal despite the advice by his own Defense Secretary General James Mattis and the allied leaders of numerous countries.
The president is instead listening to the professionals whom he has recently placed in his cabinet like the National Security Adviser John Bolton and the US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo as well as the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, all of whom are in favor of tearing up this deal and for promoting regime change in Iran.

We cannot expect any rational thinking from your president. He just blamed 9/11 on Iran too, when we all know it was Saudi Arabia. All he is doing is pandering to Israel. (And the Saudis) Nothing new, his predecessors have done much the same since the 1960s. Israel probably (perhaps almost certainly) controls the USA. A ‘mad’ statement on the surface perhaps, but worth thinking about seriously, if only for a moment.
Best wishes, Pete.

I can’t argue with anything you’ve said Pete, except when you say what he’s done is no different from that of previous presidents. While I don’t believe we’ve ever gotten things right when it comes to Israel and the Middle East, I do believe, while not perfect, this agreement put together by President Obama and the other European leaders was our best hope for stopping nuclear proliferation in Iran.
Oh, and as you already know, he’s not my president, nor will he ever be.😉

Of all Trump’s stupidities, this one has got to be by some measure the stupidest. Which is saying something.
Oh, wait: there was backing out of the Paris Agreement. So that makes two. Both of them stupider than George W Bush’s invasion of Iraq, which we all thought was the stupidest presidential action we’d see in our lifetimes.

Such a dumbass. This buffoon is so egomaniacal that he reminds me of Hitler or Stalin or Pol Pot or any other deranged dictator. He really is insane. I’m convinced of more and more every day. He is making this once-Great country the laughing stock of the world. It’s pathetic.
