Trump Slams Obama's Iran Deal as 'Stupid,' Says He Thought He Could Bribe Iran

Former President Barack Obama's Iran nuclear deal was 'stupid' and he thought he could 'bribe' Iran to comply, President Donald Trump said in a recent statement. Trump defended his own military action against Iran as part of a broader strategy to counter Iranian aggression. The comments marked a fresh attack on Obama's foreign policy legacy by the 45th president. Trump accused Obama of empowering Tehran and allowing it to become increasingly aggressive in the region.
