Trott to Sec. of State Kerry: “You Can’t Do a Good Deal with a Bad Guy”

WASHINGTON, DC:  U.S. Representative Dave Trott (MI-11) today, at a hearing in the House Foreign Affairs Committee, pressed U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry to explain the Obama Administration’s Iran nuclear agreement.  

Rep. Dave Trott to Secretary of State John Kerry: “Back when I was in the business world, I would say to my team ‘you can’t do a good deal with a bad guy.’ So, can you just understand our concern about this deal? Because it sure looks like if we are doing a good deal, as you suggest, it’s with a bad guy.”

Since coming to Congress, Rep. Trott, Michigan’s only member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, has been an outspoken critic of the Obama Administration’s nuclear agreement with Iran and has consistently warned that this agreement will pave the way for the Iranian regime to develop atomic weapons.
