Graham: Russia and Iran Will Be ‘Mopping the Floor with Obama and Kerry’

GRAHAM: "Well, there may be some potential, but I see Russia and Iran mopping the floor with Obama and Kerry. Russia is all in with Iran to support Assad. President Obama said Assad must go. The Russians say, no, he will stay. They’re fighting to keep Assad in power. Assad is a puppet of the Iranians. His regime is not going to be accepted by the Syrian people because he slaughtered 250,000 of them. It will destabilize the region. And now, Obama’s allowed Russia to dismember Syria, like it did Ukraine, and the Russians are back in the Mideast strong — they’ve never been stronger since 1973. This is a complete disaster for us, it means the war never ends, the refugees continue to flow, and ISIL has recruiting opportunity now — come to Syria and fight our mortal enemy, the Shia Persian Iranians. This is screwed up at every angle. Assad is winning. We’re losing. ISIL is getting stronger, the 50 going on the ground are in harm’s way without any chance of success. I cannot tell you how bad this is. And here’s what John Kerry will do. He will cut a deal with the Russians and Iranians, where they gets control over Syria, the Iranians will have yet another Arab capital under their control and he will declare victory. Since this deal with Iran, the nuclear deal, Iranians have test-fired a missile in violation of the U.N. sanctions. They have put troops on the ground in Iran to hurt our interest and they have now jailed the fourth American business person. Is this the change we are hoping? Iran is just slapping Obama and Kerry in the face."
