You can't allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon. If we were continuously being threatened with destruction from an enemy state, we would also stop them from developing nuclear weapons.

But it's a spectacular failure of international diplomacy that it got this far. Obama's deal was working; the UN nuclear watchdog verified this many times. Iran had halted its development of a weapon. Their uranium stocks were depleting. It wasn't perfect, Iran could eventually have broken the agreement and continued, but it was working.

Trump came in and ripped it up because it was an Obama deal and therefore bad. He didn't replace it. His 'talks', as Iran has got closer to a nuclear weapon, were going to be a weakened version of Obama's deal. Now we're just risking further escalation and an Iranian regime that is now unlikely to enter such an agreement again.

This idiot's ego has real life ramifications.
