.@danturrentine Thoughts on the MOU with Iran: “At the end of the day is it the arsonist/fireman? Does Trump get credit that things are better? And Republican candidates get the benefit.”
.@seanspicer Implications of the Iran MOU: “There’s no politician that isn’t thinking about an election… There are people that are really going to care about the details on foreign policy, on both sides.”
“The MOU is signed officially,” reports @rachaelmbade , “We’re still hearing bawking from the hawks all across the media and on twitter. But yesterday we started to get some insight into what Pres Trump was thinking when he signed this deal.”
Happy Thursday!

Is there a comms strategy for messaging on the Iran deal? "There should've been a comprehensive rollout, but there are too many things happening at once right now" @seanspicer
Hillary Clinton says the quiet part out-loud, letting it be known she thinks if Biden had dropped out sooner Trump wouldn't have won. @seanspicer@danturrentine and @rachaelmbade debate the topic. What do you think? Would a Dem have won if Biden bowed out sooner?
.@danturrentine Dems reaction to Clayton hearing being stopped: “Graham Platner, Josh Turek, Mary Petola and Sherrod Brown I think have sent to France, to Donald Trump because the SAVE ACT has been brought back on the table.”
.@seanspicer What is Trump doing pulling Clayton’s hearing? “It’s a great question cause I don’t know. I kept thinking about this, is this chess or checkers? He needs Poulte in there for 24-48 hours to get all the good stuff.”
“We all knew that section 702 of the nation’s spy powers has expired,” reports @rachaelmbade . “Senators thought they had a plan to fix this issue they were going to fast-track Jay Clayton’s nomination.”
