The Failing New York Times criticized Secretary of State Pompeo for being AWOL (missing), when in fact he was flying to North Korea. Fake News, so bad!

Senator Cryin’ Chuck Schumer fought hard against the Bad Iran Deal, even going at it with President Obama, & then Voted AGAINST it! Now he says I should not have terminated the deal – but he doesn’t really believe that! Same with Comey. Thought he was terrible until I fired him!

This tweet stems from what Politico reports as Senator Schumer’s change of heart over the Iran deal, which was reported last year.
But the New York senator changed his tone on the deal last year, telling the New York Post in an interview that despite having “great misgivings” regarding it, “The worst things Iran is doing now are not within the nuclear deal but outside of it.”
