Trump was able to quickly put together $300 billion in recovery money for Iran after he decided to bomb it.
He stood in Swannanoa NC not far from my house in October 2024 and said he’d build back bigger, better, more beautiful, and faster than Biden after Hurricane Helene inflicted $60 billion in damage in the Blue Ridge . . . and then he went MIA.
Imagine if @realDonaldTrump cared as much about rebuilding Western North Carolina for Americans as he does about rebuilding Iran for Iranians.
@mtgreenee I’m an early retiree too, 56 and paying $2000 a month , it’s a problem that can be solved when everyone stops taking sides and talks to each other and worries about our citizens again. And I mean all citizens , naturalized, legal immigrants everyone .
March 9: "We're now totally independent of the Middle East. We don't need their oil."
April 1: "It doesn't really affect us. We have so much oil. We have tremendous oil and gas, much more than we need."
June 17: If I didn't agree to the MOU, we "would run out of reserves at about 4 weeks...we would really run out, and there'll be a time when you wouldn't be able to get it."
CNN montage of Trump bashing the JCPOA and releasing any money to Iran:
I would have never given him back the money. I would have said, the money is off the table. Let's start negotiating. And you know what? I would have won that negotiation
@JoeVargas I’m 56 , you will not find one picture of me pregnant anywhere beyond a family photo album because you see at one point there was no social media, and people actually didn’t share every moment of their lives on social media . We took and printed photos to be placed in a book.
@TheLucyShow1 The issue was the daughter who most likely came in there first , saw the dad and then ran out to tell daddy - his wife who is in a wheelchair he felt should not wait , so that man was only in there screaming because one of the two women he was with came out in a huff no doubt
"If it was good news, it would have been leaked. We'd all know about it. Donald Trump would stay around to sign and pass out pens. The fact that he is getting out of town does not bode well," @DavidJUrban says of the MOU.
Jessica Tarlov pointed out the shortcomings of the deal with Iran. As she got to the part that includes $300 billion for Iran her co-host yelled over her. The $1.7 billion given to Iran during the Obama admin was from frozen Iranian assets held in interest bearing accounts.
