After Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday called the presidential campaign an “embarrassment,” Donald Trump on Monday morning tore into Kerry’s record in the Obama administration.
“I’m shocked by him,” Trump said on “Fox and Friends.” “And I’m shocked that he would sign a deal like the Iran deal, which is one of the worst and dumbest deals I’ve ever seen negotiated —a horrible, horrible embarrassment deal.”
Trump also criticized Kerry for “his policy of open door.” The Republican presidential frontrunner has been criticizing immigration policies in Europe and said he would “close up our borders.”
“I’m shocked by just about everything that he’s done and everything that president Obama has done leading this country down. We’re being taken down. Not only are we making horrible trade deals with almost every country we do business with — I think I can actually say every country we do business with. We’re losing our jobs. We’re losing everything,” Trump said.
“But, in terms of security, this open door policy is catastrophic,” he continued. “And it’s going to lead — you talk about downfall. This could lead to the downfall of the greatest nation on Earth.”
During a Sunday interview on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Kerry said that other countries are shocked by the rhetoric in the presidential race.
“I think it is fair to say that they’re shocked. They don’t know where it’s taking the United States of America. It upsets people’s sense of equilibrium about our steadiness, about our reliability,” he said. “And to some degree, I must say to you, some of the questions, the way they are posed to me, it’s clear to me that what’s happening is an embarrassment to our country.”
Trump: I will build walls around all of US. We will not allow any trade from any country to our great White Land. No Immigrants, no goods from anywhere. We have all we need within the confines of our great enclosed country. No airlines will be able to fly from/to my country.
“But we will be able to export. Because, because Amurkuh!.”
As though Trump had the faintest inkling what was a good Iran deal vs. a bad one, what the deal was even about, or could even find Iran on a bleeding map!
Did you see BTW that the shocked hombre denounced bitterly any two-state solution on Israel/Palestine, then talked to advisors who straightened him out that a two-state solution was the only game in town, so he reversed?
Trump keeps talking about winning and losing. What is this, football?
To which the Fox & Friends “reporter” followed up with: “And what, specifically, is horrible about the deal?” Followed by much sputtering and bluster by Mr. Trump. After the Washington Post interview, the media is still awfully slow on figuring this one out – he barely listens to your questions, and has no absolutely hope of answering them. So keep asking them!
