Unlike most of his fellow rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, real estate mogul Donald Trump would not rescind President Barack Obama's nuclear deal with Iran.
"I've heard a lot of people say, 'We're going to rip up the deal.' It's very tough to do when you say, 'Rip up a deal,'" Trump said Sunday on NBC's "Meet The Press."
Instead, the businessman who is currently leading GOP polls in the race for the White House promised to "police" Iran to make sure the country doesn't break the terms of the agreement.

As someone who is pretty much undecided, what does one do with this information?
He has constantly said the that the Iran deal is very very bad.
Know the man for what he is....A populist carnival barker who cares far less for what’s good for this country and far more for whats good for Donanld Trump.
New York “Republican”: Not to be trusted.
He can rip up trade deals but not a deal that is not considered a treaty and was not confirmed by the Senate?
Take away - he’s not anywhere near Conservative.
Sounds like he’s going to shove or down their throats. Watch them like a hawk and make them pay dearly for the smallest infraction.
Like a parent to a kid who wants to smoke and makes them do it till they’re sick and sorry they ever tried.
He’s also said he would re-negotiate it.
The first step in getting rid of a “bad deal” is getting a leader who does LEAD, and who recognizes it as a “bad deal”.
Then, you can begin taking apart that bad deal. McCain, McConnell and Boehner (er, Ryan ) have not even made that concession!
Trump would set the hook and play the fish.
With "no deal" you have no hook or fish.
He and his companies have “ripped up” several deals through the bankruptcy courts. He had to pal up with Citi on one of the bankruptcies. He is disingenuous at best.
This is how it works. Trump sticks it to them at a level that the Iranians cant’t abide, and when they break the agreement, which they will, Trump withdrawals from it. Trump will leverage the crap out of the Iranians.
Well, it’s 100% certain they will break the deal eventually. The Koran commands them to do so.
On the other hand, a commentator on FOX News the other day said that they may keep the deal as far as not developing a nuclear weapon. With the sanctions lifted and the money we’re giving them, they can purchase the bomb from North Korea so it’s probably cheaper and quicker to do it that way.
FUBO, FUBAR’d again.
INFORMATION from the lefty Huffington Post?
Know the Huffington Post for what it is.
Iranian physicists are in North Korea at this time.
As he said, it’s hard to undo a done deal, but he has consistently said this was a horrible deal and that stupid people have given away our sovereignty. Elect Trump and you’ll get better deals in the future. Some things like Executive Orders can be undone with the stroke of a pen, others like this deal, aren’t as easy to undo, that’s all.
Are you serious?
Did you know Cruz is the only person on the planet to take out a margin loan against his personal holdings? No one has ever done that with GS. Trump has never taken out a collateralized loan after those multiple bankruptcies either.
Or so every Trump supporter says.
It’s not news. Trump has emphatically stated this in earlier stumps.
He explained he knows how to beat and police a contract when necessary.
Anybody who has been seriously following Trump knows this already, and there have been many people following Trump for a while.
I can see what I think he intends. By policing the deal any violation gives full reason to destroy the deal with punishment. The punishment part may be so important since the provocation is just cause. I believe Trump may have the right idea.
