As Donald Trump threatens to escalate attacks on Iran, backs off amid claims that negotiations towards a new deal to end the war are going well, then backtracks on that, there remains a big unanswered question: Can he cut a better Iran nuclear deal than Obama did?
For months, Trump has been simultaneously proclaiming that the war he started against Iran more than 100 days ago is almost at end and boasting that he will end the war with a peace agreement with Tehran that does more to curb the Islamic Republic’s nuclear ambitions than the 2015 nuclear agreement he pulled the U.S. out of during his first term.
