Trump faces growing criticism from own party regarding US-Iran deal

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz expressed profound concern on Wednesday regarding what he views as massive American capitulations codified within President Donald Trump’s memorandum of understanding.

Conservative commentators and Republican lawmakers have taken to social media to condemn President Donald Trump’s newly signed Iran peace deal, denouncing it as a sweeping concession to Tehran and warning that it could reshape U.S. foreign policy for years to come.

The top Democrats on congressional committees overseeing foreign, defense and intelligence policy are demanding Secretary of State Marco Rubio provide a briefing on the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding.

While Congress has still not received the actual memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed by Trump and Iranian officials, lawmakers have seen the reports circulating in the media.
