Former Trump Loyalist Breaks With President Over Secretive Iran Deal: 'Not Enough'

—A prominent former Trump ally publicly broke with the president over the Iran deal, declaring publicly that the terms — to the extent they were known — did not go far enough in dismantling Iran's nuclear and military capabilities. The defection is notable given the loyalist's track record of defending Trump against criticism, and reflects unease among hawkish conservatives who wanted a more maximalist outcome from the conflict. Separately, critics noted the deal's opacity as a sign that Trump was hiding the concessions made to Iran to present the agreement as a victory.
