'How stupid': Trump hits back as he's shamed over Iran peace deal

President Donald Trump fired off a social media attack Friday morning as he was buried under an onslaught of criticism hurled his direction regarding the tentative peace deal he reached with Iran.According to the 14-point memorandum of understanding reached between Washington and Tehran, the United States would help Iran gain access to a $300 billion redevelopment fund, lift all sanctions, and unfreeze billions of dollars of restricted Iranian funds. The tentative deal has received criticism – particularly from hawkish conservatives – that Iran would be better positioned from the deal than they were prior to the war.Trump fiercely refuted critics’ assessments.“The War has diminished Iran! It doesn’t, any longer, have an Air Force, a Navy, Antiaircraft Equipment, Radar, or practically anything else, and yet the Dumocrats say that Iran is better off now than it was four months ago,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. “Can you imagine getting away with that??? How stupid can some people be???”In a subsequent social media post made just minutes later, Trump insisted that his administration did not fold to Iran’s demands, and that, in actuality, the inverse had happened.“We didn’t meet out of desperation, Iran did. They are FINISHED!” Trump wrote. “We’ll play out the 60 days. They get no money, not ten cents!”
