Limbaugh on Nuclear Deal: Obama Sold Us Out to Iran

Rush Limbaugh reacted today to the “inescapably disastrous” nuke deal between the U.S. and Iran by saying President Obama essentially sold out the country.

Limbaugh acknowledged there are still conservatives who would believe Obama and the White House “would not sell the United States out to the Iranians,” but said that’s what happened here and “there isn’t a mushy middle on this.”

“When you have the Iranian president celebrating and claiming victory,” he said, “and you don’t hear the American president using the word victory, when you have the Iranians dancing in the streets and the Ayatollah Khamenei claiming victory over all else, Iranians are not going to go there if it’s anything less than that.”

And the problem for Democrats, Limbaugh added, is that they want to cheer on their leader, but can’t go all-out with it because “it doesn’t warrant that.”
