Trump: Iran Sanctions Are 'for WORLD PEACE, Nothing Less!'
Source: The Daily Beast
No one can accuse Donald Trump of lacking faith in his own abilities. Tweeting early Tuesday morning, the president said he was aiming for world peace, nothing less, as he praised his new sanctions against Iran. The Iran sanctions have officially been cast, he wrote. These are the most biting sanctions ever imposed, and in November they ratchet up to yet another level. Anyone doing business with Iran will NOT be doing business with the United States. I am asking for WORLD PEACE, nothing less! Irans President Hassan Rouhani hit out at the White House for its reinstatement of economic sanctions, describing the measures, which came into effect overnight, as psychological warfare. The sanctions take aim at various sectors including Irans automotive industries, its trade in gold and other precious metals, as well as aluminum, steel, coal, and software used in industrial processes. The sanctions come after the U.S. withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal this year.

Trump is trying to divide not only our nation, but the world.

(104 posts)President Obama got one...Trump has to be the same or better then Obama at everything. It is his obsession and I believe what will truly unravel him. His unending hatred of President Obama will consume and destroy him.
Trump is rolling back almost all the good that Obama did, rolling back sanctions he put in place, putting sanctions back on ones he removed, environmental laws, tax laws, judicial appointments, the list goes on.

(51,457 posts)implementation of the Russian sanctions? Your head is up your ass. Iran agreed to a deal for peace with multiple countries, carefully worked out over years of negotiations, while Russia committed an attack on the country. So you punish one and get in bed with the other.
