It was a bad deal and should have been discarded. Almost $150 billion in cash that was secretly given to them? Come on, that in itself screams it was wrong and messed up from the beginning. That money will be funneled to their terrorist organizations and used against us. Obama just paid his muslim friends off with it. The only thing we should send Iran is a few ICBM's. People seem to forget what this country has done in the past and is continuing to do covertly. As far as Israel is concerned, I stand behind them. I do not think they are too worried about it. I also stand behind a President that supports them like President Trump is doing right now. As long as we, as a country, stand behind Israel we will be fine too, as it is written.

 

Genesis 12 King James Version (KJV)

12 Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

I'm betting those oil companies are loving their new tax cut... How about you?

Why yes I am. And I sure hope they are enjoying them too. They can now put more money back into the company, more research, better/more equipment. All of that turns into more jobs and a better and stronger US economy. I guess you missed the part about a stronger US dollar. I want to see the US back on top! It's about time!

 

Now is the time to open up Alaska and start drilling there too. Drill, baby drill!

But Trump said a weak dollar is good for America... I'm glad to see you agree with me. I too want a strong dollar.

 

 

 

 

As a candidate, President Trump emphasized American strength. As president, he is calling for a weak U.S. dollar, a departure from past presidents' economic policies.

Trump's support for a weak dollar, however, is no surprise. A weaker dollar — meaning a dollar that is less expensive in terms of foreign currency — would help achieve some of his major goals for the economy, especially stimulating U.S. manufacturing and limiting imports.

“I think our dollar is getting too strong, and partially that’s my fault because people have confidence in me. But that’s hurting — that will hurt ultimately,” Trump said, before suggesting that the phrase “strong dollar” could be misleading.

 

 

His words, not mine..
