President Donald Trump released less than two pages outlining his memorandum of understanding that will be the framework for the ultimate deal with Iran to end the war. While some Republican lawmakers have come out against the deal, Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) hasn’t even read it. <\/p>\n

The 14-point agreement was available nearly 24 hours ago, CNN producer Kit Maher remarked after reporter Manu Raju faced off with Collins outside the members-only elevator. <\/p>\n

“I have not reviewed the MOU yet,” Collins told reporters. When pressed on whether the war was successful or she thought it was a “good deal,” she reiterated, “I have not yet had a chance to read it.”<\/p>\n

CNN’s Aaron Blake remarked, “Collins sits on the Senate Intelligence Committee.”<\/p>\n

Semafor congressional bureau chief Burgess Everett commented, “‘There is high level dismay’ among Senate Republicans about the Iran deal, one senator says, adding it\u2019s ‘unlikely’ that a final deal with Iran is ever reached.”<\/p>\n

One of Blake’s followers thinks that Collins is lying. <\/p>\n

“She may SIT on the committee, but there’s no intelligence in evidence…” another commented. <\/p>\n

A mock account named Art Vandelay suggested that Collins plug the plan into ChatGPT and have it summarize the MOU into five sentences. <\/p>\n

A lawyer who previously worked for the Democratic Party called the comments “Embarrassing and disqualifying.” He urged Collins, “Do your job or go away.”<\/p>\n

The X account Collins Watch, which heckles the senator on the social media platform, commented, “You can’t just wait for the elevator doors to close when you get an uncomfortable question in the middle of a town hall…which is probably why Susan Collins hasn’t held one since the 1990s.”<\/p>\n

Trump already has a strong opposition force in the Senate Armed Services Committee. <\/p>\n

Sen. Roger Wicker, a far-right Republican from Mississippi, made it clear he isn’t happy with Trump’s MOU and went so far as to blame “ill-advice” that he thinks the president’s advisors are giving him. <\/p>\n

“Specifically, the $300 billion fund for the reconstruction and economic development of Iran \u2014 though not funded by U.S. taxpayers \u2014 would make Iran’s payoff under President Obama’s 2015 deal look like a pittance by comparison. I believe it would be an error to force Israel to stand down against Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed terrorist organization that continues to attack Israel on its northern border,” he continued.<\/p>\n
