What appears to be happening to congressional Republicans is the collision of two convictions: That Iran is extremely dangerous and that anything Obama did is bad. One way to resolve those convictions would be to admit that Obama’s JCPOA, while it may be flawed, is the only available path to restraining the Tehran regime, and to work within its parameters. T
he other is to live in an alternate reality in which Trump—who has only been able to pass one major piece of legislation in 16 months despite his party controlling both chambers of Congress, and who frequently seems to have no idea what his own administration’s position is on any given issue—is poised to lead the rest of the world in totally reworking a massively complicated multi-lateral agreement.
Good luck with that, guys!
