BREAKING: Jessica Tarlov rips apart Trump’s ‘historic’ Iran deal is a weak, half-baked MOU that kicks EVERY hard issue down the road!
Fox News rebel Jessica Tarlov has destroyed the Trump administration’s victory-lapping over its new Iran agreement, pointing out that it looks far less impressive once you read the fine print.
Even shameless warhawk and Trump Groupie #1 Lindsey Graham is sounding the alarm about the gap between what the U.S. claims is in the deal and what the Iranians are saying, Tarlov pointed out.
The network's lone lefty also shocked her Trumper colleagues by calling out the strategic blame-shifting toward JD Vance once the devil in the details are revealed, setting the stage for him to be thrown under the bus in case it all falls apart.
Most damningly, Tarlov highlighted that the administration still hasn’t released the actual text of the agreement, even though it’s already digitally signed and therefore easy to share if they were interested:
“Not releasing any of the text is a choice… So you should have put it out there for people, especially for your [MAGA] supporters.”
The reason, she says, it because it plainly sucks, and leaves us in a far worse position than before Trump started whacking the beehive.
“This is just an MOU that gives them up to 60 days to deal with the tough stuff. The tough stuff on nuclear and also on the opening of the Strait of Hormuz without the tolling… That isn’t ironclad.”
Unlike Obama’s 2015 deal, which had broad international buy-in from Europe, China, and Russia, this deal is basically a bilateral agreement with no real coalition behind it.
And of course, there are already whispers about the big money in US investment deals that our esteemed and patriotic negotiators Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff are reportedly very interested in.
Tarlov’s conclusion was stark. This is no “historic” breakthrough Trump is trying to sell us. It’s a vague, face-saving memo that delays the hardest questions while Iran continues to do pretty much as it pleases.
For the umpteenth time, Trump is claiming total victory, while the details reveal no such thing. The man who tried to mock Obama’s Iran deal as ineffectual has now replaced it with something that looks weaker, less transparent, and much more likely to fall apart.
Trump’s last con is not going to work. The real effects of the Iran war will present themselves soon enough.
Stay tuned for updates.
