Might Have Been Nice If Someone In the MSM Had Done This

After reading all 156 pages of the Iran Deal 3 times, Mattis concluded: “it is written almost with an assumption that Iran would try to cheat. So the verification...is actually pretty robust as far as our intrusive ability to get in” with IAEA inspectors. https://t.co/NvqU000amy

It would have been nice if someone from the MSM had read the Iran deal three times, during the 2016 election, and pointed out that the "verification" was "pretty robust". I do not think many in the media really took the time to really explain the Iran deal.

...and I feel like George Marshall or Henry Clay have come back to life. Which means, of course, that he's not long for his position. Moron45 simply can't endure a competent professional anywhere near him...
