Erin Burnett throws Trump's past Iran claims back in his face: 'Exact same talking points'

CNN host Erin Burnett threw President Donald Trump's previous criticisms of former President Barack Obama's Iran deal back in his face on Wednesday, noting that Trump was now using the same talking points that he rebuked Obama for using. Trump has described Obama's Iran deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), as giving away too much money to the Iranian regime and not preventing the regime from obtaining or developing a nuclear weapon. Burnett noted that those criticisms sound like an apt description of the deal Trump just signed with the regime over the weekend. "Now, after all of Trump's criticism of Obama and the way that Trump talked about that money, he's now using the exact same talking point, the exact same one as Trump's agreement with Iran could unfreeze more than $100 billion in frozen assets, double the amount that the Iranians got under Obama. Double!" Burnett said during the opening segment of her show, "Erin Burnett OutFront." Over the weekend, Trump announced that his administration had agreed to a deal that would immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz while the administration continues negotiations to end the war with Iran. However, that deal has been sharply criticized for providing Iran with billions of dollars up front in exchange for a promise to negotiate over thornier issues, like the country's nuclear program, at a later date. The deal reminded Burnett of Trump criticizing Obama for dropping "pallets of cash" in Iran. "Can we just pause for a second and remember him talking about the pallets of cash and all of those things, and mocking that very same argument? And now here we are. It is stunning," she said.

Outgoing GOP senator torches Trump's Iran deal: 'Worst foreign policy blunder in decades'

A Republican Senator whom President Donald Trump drove from office unloaded on his Iran deal on Tuesday, calling it the worst foreign policy blunder in decades.Sen. Bill Cassidy, a Louisiana Republican in the final months of his Senate term after losing his primary to a Trump-backed challenger, posted the broadside on X hours after the Trump administration read aloud the contents of its 14-point memorandum of understanding with Iran to reporters."Reagan is rolling over in his grave," Cassidy wrote. "Iran's nuclear ambitions were not curbed, and they have learned that threatening the Strait of Hormuz works and will undoubtedly leverage it in the future."He ticked through the costs: 13 American service members dead, families paying elevated gas prices from the Hormuz closure, sanctions set to be lifted, and bombing halted — with Iran now positioned to rebuild."This is the worst foreign policy blunder in decades," Cassidy wrote.The senator also told Nexstar on Capitol Hill: "The details that I've seen so far look … awful."Cassidy voted to convict Trump after his second impeachment. Trump backed a primary challenger against him in retribution — and after losing that primary last month, Cassidy immediately flipped to support a Democratic war powers resolution seeking to force Trump to end the Iran conflict.The broadside lands as the MOU's terms drew fresh scrutiny. Senior administration officials read the agreement aloud to reporters Tuesday, revealing immediate waivers on Iranian oil exports, a $300 billion reconstruction framework, and a 60-day negotiation window to resolve Iran's nuclear program. The deal does not bar Iran from enriching uranium, deferring the question to final talks.Cassidy was not alone. Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called the emerging deal "not remotely America First."The deal is set to be formally signed on Friday at the Bürgenstock resort in Switzerland.
