Dems *demand* any deal with North Korea do several things--Obama's Iran deal didn't do ANY


Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ), the ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, along with six other top Democrat senators, sent a letter to Trump demanding that that any deal he may reach with North Korea must do all of the following things:
  • Dismantle and remove every single one of North Korea’s nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons;
  • End the production and enrichment of uranium and plutonium for military purposes, and permanently dismantle North Korea’s nuclear weapons infrastructure. This includes the destruction of test sites, all nuclear weapons research and development facilities and enrichment facilities;
  • Suspend all of North Korea’s ballistic missile tests and disable, dismantle and eliminate all of North Korea’s ballistic missiles and programs.
  • Commit to robust compliance inspections including a verification regime for North Korea’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs. Inspections must have complete access to all nuclear related sites and facilities with real time verification of North Korean compliance. A separate compliance regime for its chemical and biological weapons that prevents, detects and punishes cheating on the part of North Korea is also necessary. These compliance regimes must include “anywhere, anytime” inspections and snap-back sanctions if North Korea is not in full compliance;
  • Be permanent.
The Democrats also demanded that President Trump work with Congress and submit any relevant agreement to the Senate for ratification.

The Dems' hypocrisy here is off the charts--because emperor Obama's highly-touted "nuclear agreement" with Iran had exactly NONE of these features.

That's right, kids: NONE of 'em.  And yet Democrats swooned that Obama's agreement--which he carefully avoided calling a "treaty" so he wouldn't have to submit it to the senate for ratification--was the greatest diplomatic achievement in history.

So once again--to the surprise of no one with an IQ over room temperature--we see two sets of standards by Dems: one for their sainted emperor, and a much higher standard the demand when a republican is president.
