Earlier today, former President Obama criticized Trump’s new deal with Iran, suggesting it is no different that the Iran Deal that he tried to put into place. In fact, they are not the same thing at all.
Vice President JD Vance fired back at Obama during an appearance on the Sean Hannity show on FOX News tonight, pointing out one of the glaring differences between the two deals.
Gulf Arabs hated the Obama deal, but they like this one. Also, Obama’s deal was going to almost guarantee that Iran would eventually get a nuclear weapon.
Partial transcript via Overton News:
Vice President Vance fires back at Obama for claiming the new Iran deal is basically the same as the JCPOA.
Vance then asked Obama one question that completely destroyed his entire argument.
VANCE: “I’d ask the president, the former president, I’d say Obama, why in the world if it’s the same thing, why is it that the Gulf Arabs hated your deal and they love our deal?”
“They are the ones in the region, they know what it means to enrich the worst terrorist regime in the world, and they also know what it means to turn over a new leaf and go to a different future.”
“I think president Obama, he should acknowledge that the people who are closest to this, they love the Trump deal.”
“They hate the Obama deal.”
“And that’s maybe the biggest endorsement of this plan.”

Obama is just not willing or capable of keeping his nose out of things, even though he has been out of office for a decade.
He is incapable of showing the same grace that was afforded to him by his predecessor, George W. Bush.
