It seems the reviews are in for this " peace agreement"

And I have yet to hear a good one. MSNOW and CNN are scathing. Even the R panel members are not offering a defense. But it's not just them. The first question trump at his presser today was from FAUX and the reporter was very tough. Steve Doocy wanted to know why he wasn't sticking around for the signing ceremony, implying that if it is so good why not take credit? That prompted him to "joke" that if it wasn't good he would blame it on JD.

Republicans are not thrilled either. According to CNN, republicans are calling the agreement a "massive blunder" and "American surrender".

Looks like it's just a matter of time until trump fulfills his "joke" to blame it all on JD. I think even he knows how bad this is.

If there is even anything good he can sell, he would have said it’s his deal and the best ever.

Maybe they couldn't get a better price for the house?

That being the only faithful goal in his maladministration, regardless of the multi-generational infrastructure weakness he's causing the nation he identifies as being President of. And his fools applaud this as strength.
