The Global Aftershocks of Trump's Blunder in Iran - Talking Feds
Jake Sullivan helped negotiate the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. Now, as he watches Trump try to superglue some version of that deal back together, Sullivan tells Harry Trump “has no idea what he is doing because he has no idea quite why he's doing it.”
