Senator Warren Delivers Remarks on Iran War Powers Resolution

Published | Video Starts at 03:52

Both of those things cannot be true. If Donald Trump believes that Iran's nuclear ambitions are a threat, he had the chance to curb them. In fact, The United States had a deal that would have prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. That was President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran, and Trump ripped up that deal and got nothing in return. Instead of doing the hard work of diplomacy to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, Trump is lying to Americans while dragging us into yet another reckless war that is costing American lives.
