That era of Fake, unenforced Red Lines? It’s OVER.
It was pretty clear what PRESIDENT Trump thought about the deal the outgoing ‘POUTUS’ made with Iran.
Yep. That’s about right.
And now like a rebellious child, Iran is testing the resolve of the New American Administration. They’re playing the ‘will you stop me if’ game. They launched a ballistic missile test.
Trump is not turning a blind eye.
He’s calling them out right from day one. And he’s being COMPLETELY transparent about it. (Transparent. If you voted Obama, you’ll probably have to look it up. It means something different than what YOU voted for.)
Trump is using Twitter.
Iran has been formally PUT ON NOTICE for firing a ballistic missile.Should have been thankful for the terrible deal the U.S. made with them!

Iran was on its last legs and ready to collapse until the U.S. came along and gave it a life-line in the form of the Iran Deal: $150 billion

Here’s what Flynn, and others had to say on the matter:
Trump’s National Security Advisor issued his own stern warning to Tehran’s mullahs on Wednesday.
Gen. Michael Flynn told reporters during a White House press briefing that the administration ‘condemns such actions by Iran that undermine security, prosperity and stability throughout and beyond the Middle East that puts American lives at risk.’
‘As of today, we are officially putting Iran on notice,’ he said.
It wasn’t clear what that notice means, or what consequences Iran can expect if it continues to test missiles that are capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
Senior administration officials wouldn’t rule out military action or sanctions during a separate briefing with reporters that came later.
Officials said ‘a large number of options’ are being considered and would not reveal what those are other than to say that they include financial and economic actions.
‘We are considering a whole range of options. We are in a deliberative process,’ one said. — DailyMail
Maybe the phrase ‘quit while you’re ahead’ isn’t well known in Iran.
