Tillerson came out of hiding today to give a face saving press conference after having to do his job yesterday and confirm that Iran is complying with the nuclear deal

I wonder how long until our Man-Child in Chief has someone explain to him how this deal works and why it would be an epic mistake on his part to fuck with it while Iran is in compliance.

U.S. says Iran complies with nuke deal but orders review on lifting sanctions
By Lesley Wroughton | WASHINGTON

The Trump administration said on Tuesday it was launching an inter-agency review of whether the lifting of sanctions against Iran was in the United States' national security interests, while acknowledging that Tehran was complying with a deal to rein in its nuclear program.

In a letter to U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan, the top Republican in Congress, on Tuesday U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Iran remained compliant with the 2015 deal, but said there were concerns about its role as a state sponsor of terrorism.

Under the deal, the State Department must notify Congress every 90 days on Iran's compliance under the so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). It is the first such notification under U.S. President Donald Trump.

"The U.S. Department of State certified to U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan today that Iran is compliant through April 18 with its commitments under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action," Tillerson said in a statement.
