TopicTrump threatens to kill the Iran nuclear deal, but the deal wins - for now.

Like, I just don't understand the conservative logic here. OK, you want Iran to stop funding terrorism - I completely agree. But axing this deal does absolutely nothing to further that goal; if anything, it makes it harder to achieve, because it pisses the Iranians off and makes them less likely to deal in the future, it takes away stock from a relatively moderate Iranian president and fuels the nutbars like his predecessor, it annoys American allies for ripping up an agreement that took years of coordinated effort to achieve, and it puts nukes back on the table by removing the only limits on Iran's nuclear enrichment program.

That means you're not only back to square one, you're actually further back than that, because now instead of an Iran that's funding terrorism, we have a potentially nuclear-armed Iran funding terrorism.

Between the two, the first one is plainly the better choice.
