Jeb Bush: I won't tear up Iran deal on Day One

Jeb Bush on Friday gave sharp criticism of the nuclear deal with Iran, but said he wouldn't immediately kill the agreement on his first day in office if he becomes the next president.

The former Florida governor told an audience at a campaign event in Carson City, Nevada, that he'd take a more pragmatic approach by consulting with his Cabinet and allies before scratching the nuclear agreement altogether.

"One thing I won't do is just say as a candidate: 'I'm just going to tear up the agreement on the first day.' That sounds great, but maybe you ought to check in with your allies first. Maybe you ought to appoint a secretary of state, maybe a secretary of defense," he said. "You might want to have your team in place before you take an act like that."

Bush added: "If you're running for president, I think it's important to be mature and thoughtful about this," he told reporters after his town hall.

every time this fellow opens his mouth, he shoves his foot into it

what a loser!

[faithhopecharity]

he’s almost the complete socialist leftist party line, position by position, statement by statement

[Fiji Hill]

Terri Schaivo would tear up that ‘treaty.’

If he gets the nomination, I'm going to write in her name on Election Day if write-ins are still allowed.

[Luke21]

Or day two, or three, or four...

[hoosiermama]

We can only pray.
Otoh they have donated their limits and Jen can’t hit them up for more

Cruz. OTOH contributes averaged under $200. If each contributed a second time he would double his funds!

BIG SMILE

[timestax]

He thinks he should be president because it's his turn..NOT !

[scooby321]

Any wonder why Trump is doing so well

[Timber Rattler]

Loser on multiple fronts.

[BobL]

Is there ANY ISSUE where he aligns with the Republican base?

[Lurkinanloomin]

That was written before he announced.
He’s the Designated Loser.
He will lose graciously.

[HomerBohn]

Go back to doing whatever the hell it was before you decided the now disgraced White Hut was for you.

Your family is the reason the nation is in such dire straits now...+

[chris37]

This is one dumb, dumb Bush.

Wow...

[Seaplaner]

Not a Jeb fan, I absolutely will not vote for him in the primary. Amnesty for illegal aliens makes him toxic, primarywise.

(I will vote for the GOP candidate in the general, whomever that may be.)

That said, (and unless my cursory read missed something) I'm not sure what Jeb said is all that horrible; as I think that it just means a thoughtful and well-planned dismantling.

[stylin19a]

Hey Jeb...why don’t you talk to the UK, France, China, Russia and German negotiators now ?

[Rapscallion]

Jeb Bush is weak!!!

And he's mealy-mouthed.

[tips up]

Of course not. How much different would Jeb be compared to Obama?

Like comparing DNA between humans and mice, 90+% alike.

[RIghtwardHo]

lol Here we go. The only thing that gives me solace is that he will never be POTUS. But what smacks that smile off my face is that Hildabeast will.

[TTFlyer]

“Jeb is the dumb Bush.” And that’s effing dumb.....

[Mollypitcher1]

Uhhh Jeb, there ain’t gonna be a Day One for you.

Agreed!

[Georgia Girl 2]

You are not getting a Day one Jebster. Look over your shoulder here comes the Trump lawn mower. :-)
