Chris Murphy: ‘Absolute Fantasy’ If Trump Thinks He Can Get Iran Back to the Table If He Decertifies the Nuke Deal

RUSH EXCERPT:
MURPHY: "Absolutely not. The president is right, there are all sorts of other misbehaviors of Iran in the region. But what we came to the conclusion, we came to the conclusion that those behaviors would be much more dangerous if Iran was a nuclear weapons country. And so we made it a decision to take away from Iran a path to a nuclear weapon. And the reality is, the president is about to impose on himself and this country a dramatic self-inflicted wound because by pulling out of this agreement, Iran will go back on to a path to develop a nuclear weapon, the other partners that were with us on sanctions over the last decade will not reimpose them, and Iran will look like the victim in this situation. They will get everything they want. They will be able to restart their nuclear program, they will continue to get sanctions relief and look like the aggrieved party. It is just absolute fantasy to think that this president is going to be able to get them back to the negotiating table when they ultimately will get everything that they want, if we were going to — if we ended up violating this agreement."
