Trump: ‘We look like we’re beggars’ in Iran nuclear talks
The Hill ^ | 06/28/15 | Martin Matishak

Posted on 06/28/2015 2:56:59 PM PDT by entropy12

GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump says the Obama administration is making the U.S. “look like we’re beggars” as they pursue a long-term deal on Iran’s nuclear program.

“We look like we’re beggars. We look like we’re sitting there begging,” Trump told John Catsimatidis on Sunday during “The Cats Roundtable” on New York’s AM 970.

“The Persians … are very good negotiators. The people representing Iran are master negotiators. They’re dealing with fools. They’re dealing with fools,” he said, adding that Obama is “not a negotiator.”

ADVERTISEMENT Trump said the U.S. and other Western powers “have the cards right now — soon we won’t have the cards — but we have the cards right now and we should put sanctions much stronger, much harder.”

“Bring them to the table on our terms because they are really making a deal that is a deal that should not be made,” he added.

The professional politicians are slaves of their sugar daddy rich donors. They do what their masters tell them to do. Oh yes, go ahead and push for the Pacific Trade Pact...screw the middle class. And they have no experience in brutally hard negotiations dealing with foreign countries. No wonder are getting screwed by every country.

"Our first priority should be stopping a bad Iran deal that jeopardizes the lives of millions of Americans and millions of our allies," Sen. Cruz said. "There is nothing more important this body can consider, not trade, not the budget. There is nothing more important. The first responsibility of this body is to protect the national security of this country - to protect the lives and safety of men, women, and children across this country - and the President's Iran deal deeply jeopardizes the safety of Americans."

Like Benghazi, this Iran ploy is a GIVE-AWAY
rather than a negotiation.

The White Mosque looks to a complacent “US” Congress
and delay and SECRECY (beloved by the GOP) to
sustains its simple Treason.

The Donald hit the nail on the head concerning the so-called negotiations with Iran. Obama and Kerry do seem to be begging for a deal, any deal. And I think that also often describes our trade negotiations.

I heard somewhere that on one foreign visit, a leader actually mistook Obama and his wife for vagrants and flicked a penny at them saying “Get a job!”

Perfect! You can almost see the stink lines from these two misfits sitting in a pile of garbage bags!

That's because our President believes we are beggars. Moral beggars, who much beg pardon of our moral superiors, among whom he counts the Iranians.

I like the way Trump is not afraid to call a spade a spade and to get in their faces (and under their skin).

Right now, warts and all, he’s the only one showing some leadership, (Cruz excepted). Maybe it’ll rub off on the others.

This is the day for celebrities speaking out.

“Cher reports that Iran is ‘governed by terrorists’ who can’t be allowed to have a nuclear weapon”

They better hurry, or Trump will steal all their best lines.

Remember a few months back, the Goddess of ‘slob boy’ was at a restaurant and was asked if she could get something for them?

I laughed for days over that...to think ANYONE would mistake her for what she REALLY is instead of what she THINKS she is....LMAO

I don't like the man, and I don't trust the man.

Having said that, I will give him credit for at least speaking the truth at times (this being one of them). Would that more than a handful of our precious elected officials had the fortitude to say this.

We kind of are. We have no leverage on Iran and everybody knows it. We can’t invade them, the American people won’t put up with another mid-east invasion. They’re already under embargo for various stuff. UN condemnation? Probably wouldn’t pass and really who cares. We really have no options.

She might be seeking a position in Trump’s cabinet, he likes lefties for that kind of thing.

Only 2 people I have ever trusted 100% are my father and mother. I do not need to “trust” Trump. But Trump may be more trustworthy because Trump does not need sugar daddy rich donors telling him what to do, unlike the other professional politicians.

Actually we do. Or did. The sanctions that were in place were wrecking their economy, most of which is owned by the mullahs personally. That's why Iran agreed to negotiate in the first place. But Obama lifted them as a reward for just sitting down with us, and threw away all leverage in the actual negotiations. Trump says he would walk out and double or triple the original sanctions until they begged us to negotiate.
