President Barack Obama is defending his criticism of Republicans opposed to his Iran nuclear deal.
The president links them to hard-liners in Tehran who chant “Death to America.”
Obama says what the two groups have in common is that they’re “satisfied with the status quo.” He says hardliners are opposed to any cooperation with the international community, and Republicans have an “ideological commitment” to not getting a deal done.
Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has called on Obama to retract his comments, calling them offensive.
The president’s original remarks came in a speech earlier this week in which he refuted criticism of the deal to curb Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. He defended the comments in an interview with CNN that aired Friday morning.

This is why people are going for Trump.
Trump would not ask the President to retract, Trum would fire back the truth (What everyone really thinks).
Here is what Trump would say, “what OBAMA & IRAN have in common, they are both working day and night to destroy the USA!!!!
Re. Jonathan Pollard and Iran:
Let us recall that Barack Obama’s pastor was the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. For many years, Obama attended the sermons of Wright, which were anti-Semitic and anti-American.
Now in his second term and not eligible for re-election, President Obama is free to act in accordance with his beliefs.
Obama the evil, devil,satanic,low life, scumbag muslim
terrorist snake wants death to America and death to Israel
Proves:
His priest for over 20 years preached that jews are descendents of monkeys and donkeys,it was played on radio.
He put the Muslim Brotherhood Morsi in power in Egypt ,who allowed
Hamas to smuggle 50000 missiles and weapoons,which was used against Israel in the Gaza war
He said in his Cairo Speech that Israel was established because of the Holocaust ,he does believe jews has historical connection to the land,just like Sheik Yassin.
He created ISIS by withdrawing all the US troops from Iraq See PANNETTA book about the President.
He wants Iran to have a Bombs to destroy Israel and the USA.
His mother lived with together with 6 muslim men the same time,Nobody knows who is his father,but for sure he is a muslim.By muslims if the father is a muslim the son is a muslim.
Obama is a more dangerous muslim terrorist than the
head of ISIS and the president of Iran.
HE should be charged and tried for HIGH TREASON and executed,
Oh.My.Gosh!! Does anyone not see how hilarious this is? First, they kept denying they chanted it. Then, they claimed that they didn’t really mean it. Now they are comparing Republicans to them, the “hard liners”??? THE “PRESIDENT” OF IRAN WAS THERE, LEADING THEM!!!!!!!
I can’t believe how moronic Obummer continues to be. He is just getting stupider and stupider.
