☢️How Trump's 2018 Iran Nuclear Deal Blunder of Obama-Era Policies Led to War
Constitutional Law
Foreign Policy
National Security
On June 22, 2025, Trump's hand-picked Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Caine announced that "Operation Midnight Hammer"—7 B-2 bombers striking Iranian nuclear sites—had "obliterated" Iran's nuclear program. Trump's 2018 withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal destroyed diplomatic solutions and forced Biden to inherit an impossible situation that Trump is now "solving" with bombs.

Why This Matters
Your Security Destroyed by Trump's First Term:
Trump killed the Iran deal in 2018 when it was working, allowing Iran's uranium stockpile to grow from 300kg to 4,745kg—enough for 9 nuclear weapons—creating the crisis he's now bombing his way out of
Biden Inherited Trump's Mess:
Trump handed Biden an Iran with 60% enriched uranium and a 1-week nuclear breakout time instead of the 1-year buffer the JCPOA provided, making diplomatic revival impossible and leaving only military options
Constitutional Crisis and Cronyism:
Trump bypassed Congress to bomb Iran using his personally loyal Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Caine, who allegedly told Trump "I'll kill for you, sir" and replaced the qualified general Trump fired for being "too woke"
Your Tax Dollars for Trump's Failures:
"Operation Midnight Hammer" cost hundreds of millions in taxpayer money to destroy nuclear facilities that wouldn't exist if Trump hadn't sabotaged Obama's diplomatic solution seven years ago
Nuclear War Risk from Presidential Ego:
Iran now threatens to abandon religious prohibitions on nuclear weapons after Trump's strikes, meaning his 2018 "maximum pressure" campaign has brought America closer to nuclear war than any crisis since Cuba 1962
Military Politicization:
Chairman Caine's declaration that Iran's nuclear program is "obliterated" shows how Trump uses loyalist generals to sell military victories while ignoring the strategic disaster his policies created
