      Holding Congress doesn’t mean much unfortunately, when you can’t sign a treaty because one party opposes on a party line.

      Also, the Iranians simply won’t negotiate when the next guy might reinstate sanctions. The last guy screwed us.

      They cant keep blaming the guy thats been gone 3 years, when the new one has had a trifecta and did nothing. Other than keep most of Trumps worst policies in place.

        I mean we have held this sanction against Iran for 40 years, Trump left the nuclear deal and we are trying to rejoin it. These newest sanctions make sense in the context of uprisings in Iran, and the nuclear deal.
