00:00looked at the situation and said the real option is a nuclear deal that is imperfect but fundamentally
00:08effective in preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. And the reality is that that
00:13has not changed since 2015 when that deal went into effect. An imperfect but fundamentally
00:20effective nuclear deal that requires constant enforcement and eventually will require follow-on
00:26diplomacy and agreements. That is the only viable way forward. That is true for Trump today as it was
00:33true for Obama more than a decade ago. Trump thought he could bomb his way out of that reality.
00:38He thought he could blockade his way out of that reality. He now has this new plan that he can
00:44swallow that reality only if he gets this massive normalization of all Arab and Muslim countries with
00:49Israel. That's not going to work either. It all just comes back to an imperfect but basically
00:56effective nuclear deal. And every day that Trump doesn't go for that deal is another day we all
01:01suffer. It's another day where America loses, where Iran gains, and it is just putting off,
01:08frankly, the inevitable. This is what is available and this is what President Trump should take.
