Re: President Trump & U.S Election 2016 Investigation

I don't think Obama deserved the Nobel Peace Prize either and his foreign policy was mixed to say the least.

But it also has to be placed in perspective. Trump and his supporters almost seem to define themselves by Obama. The Iran deal got Russia and China on board and stopped their nuclear weapons development. Now Trump wants to rip it up but there doesn't appear to be an alternative plan. Just like the attempt to scrap Obamacare there was little thought to replacing it with something better, all the alternatives left fewer Americans with health insurance, so long as Obamacare was gone.

A lasting peace deal with the Koreas would a genuine achievement for Trump. Like with Iran this would be a country that was developing nuclear weapons, where war was at least a worry, which we're now on peaceful terms with. However as with Iran there would have to be concessions to N.Korea and it's these likely concessions that are Trump's problem with the Iran deal. So is he not going to give anything to N.Korea? If he does then what's the difference between that and Iran? Other than the latter is Obama.
