When President Trump withdrew the U.S. from the intensely short-sighted JCPOA (Iran deal), there was a period of preparation for our allies and partners prior to the re-institution of the first round of U.S. sanctions against Iran. The transition period ends tomorrow as the sanctions begin August 6th, 2018.
Europe and NATO allies are under pressure to discontinue any trade action/terms with Iran as the U.S. sanctions will also apply toward any nation that engages in economic transactions with the Iranian regime.

Any attempt to exchange information with the other side can offer some perspective when delivered by one not actively employed in the Swamp. There are dreams, upon review of the cats and landscapes on the “Caturday” thread, that a lesser divide and better relations result. The political divide is now also defined by regional slurs that are not necessarily the stuff of political battle lines.

Steelbreeze7, sometimes difficult to know why he continues as a democrat because many time he is more republican. I thought he spoke well here and even in his heart believes a blue wave will not take place. My only concern is why do we allow Congress members to be in more than 2 terms max – most are past their sell by dates, have enriched themselves tremendously. We must tell our elected/hired employees that we want regulation of ONLY 2 terms whether they like it or not, and we want ALL lifetime benefits removed as we did not vote nor authorize this, and no annual salary increase without our vote/authorization. They are our employees to represent us and nothing more. I also would like to see ALL committees removed as a waste of time and money and end ZERO. Would like Feinstein removed now because 20 yrs. with an Asian employee and not aware? Then how can she make good decisions as a Congress member, and this would also stop her porking deals for her spouse which has made them so rich they will never live long enough to spend it. Being a democrat against Jews, but her married name is super Jewish. Hmmm. Money over ethics, etc. wins every time.

While I support term limits, limiting House members to two terms (4 years) isn’t feasible imo. I think four terms (8 yrs) for the House and two terms (12 yrs) for the Senate is a more practical arrangement

“When President Trump withdrew the U.S. from the intensely short-sighted JCPOA (Iran deal), there was a period of preparation for our allies and partners prior to the re-institution of the first round of U.S. sanctions against Iran. ”
____________
I believe you are being too gracious by
halfinfinity.The JCPOA was not intensely short-sighted — that would imply mere incompetence.
What the JCPOA was is an act of outright Treason. Willful, with malicious intent and malice aforethought.
It is all so much bigger, of necessity, than most people are willing to talk about.
It was not a ‘negotiation’ or ‘settlement’ between ‘adversaries’.
It was a ‘deal’ among partners in crime, to achieve MUTUAL objectives.
NOT objectives that were in the interest (much less, best interest) of America or the American People, but in the interest of the CRIMINAL POLITICAL CLASS, and their handlers, and their puppet masters.
And the truth of ALL of it cannot be exposed soon enough.

From what I recall, way back when, candidate Trump never said a deal with Iran was the wrong thing to do. Many are acting as if he had.
I believe his issue with dealing with Iran was that it was such a lopsided deal. The concept of a deal, a voluntary deal, where one side gets everything they want and the other side gets nothing is antithetical to the American ideal of fairness.
LikeLiked by 1 person
It was not intensely short-sighted. It met every one of Iran’s long-term goals, including rescuing the tottering regime, a path to ICBMs, uranium supplies, political cover, self-inspections, billions for terror, a blind eye for repression, threats to Israel and the Saudis, access to markets and banks, etc. It did everything but read the Ayatollah a bedtime story. Hell, its not even a “deal” since all the negotiators were on the same side.
And now its Gone With the Windbag who wrote it.
