"Decaying," "rotten" and "defective" -- among the adjectives used by Trump to describe Iran deal. "Therefore, I am announcing today that the United States will withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal."

Trump: "Over the years Iran and its proxies have bombed American embassies...murdered hundreds of American service members and kidnapped imprisoned and tortured American citizens".

Trump: In theory, deal meant to protect US and allies, in fact actually allowed Iranian enrichment and also did nothing re Syria and Yemen. US had maximum leverage, deal gave regime billions of dollars.

Trump points to Israeli presentation and Iran's history of pursuing nuclear weapon. Deal didn't bring calm or peace and never will.

Trump: Even if Iran fully complies, regime can be on verge of nuclear breakout in just a short period of time, sunset provisions unacceptable.

Pulling out of Iran deal is not "violating" the deal. The mechanism set up in the legislation on the deal gives the president the authority to remove the US from the JCPOA--by definition it's legal.

Keep a close eye on U.S. Senate hopeful @RepJackyRosen's reaction to the Iran deal announcement. Her history on this is interesting, as is @SenDeanHeller's attempt to exploit it. Our @hsanchez128 covered it: https://t.co/oJy6HQkCHS pic.twitter.com/rjMCDJI8Du

Friendly reminder: In 2015, the majority of Congress and the US public opposed the deeply flawed Iran nuclear deal.
