WASHINGTON (TNND) — Some GOP senators raised concerns over the weekend about President Donald Trump’s potential peace deal with Iran.
Over the weekend, Trump announced that deal with Iran that would include opening the Strait of Hormuz had been "largely" negotiated.
The Associated Press reported that the potential deal involved opening the Strait of Hormuz, the war ending and Iran would give up its stockpile of uranium, and talks would continue for over 60 days.
South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham also listed his concerns regarding the potential deal.
Mississippi Sen. Roger Wicker said that the rumored 60-day ceasefire would be a disaster for the U.S.
“The rumored 60-day ceasefire — with the belief that Iran will ever engage in good faith — would be a disaster,” he wrote. “Everything accomplished by Operation Epic Fury would be for naught!”
Trump fired back at his critics on TRUTH Social, saying they were “losers.”
"It isn't even fully negotiated yet,” he wrote on TRUTH Social. “So don't listen to the losers, who are critical about something they know nothing about.”
