The last three Democrat Presidents have been terrible for the US but great for the leaders running Pakistan, North Korea and Iran.
Pakistan
President Jimmy Carter in the late 1970’s had no idea how to prevent the predominantly Muslim country Pakistan from obtaining nuclear weapons. In 2010 it was reported that:
Despite a persistent anxiety over its nuclear program, the Carter administration failed miserably in efforts to pressurise Pakistan away from fuel enrichment and officials were left “scratching their heads” on how to tackle the problem, newly declassified documents have shown….The documents show that Pakistani nuclear weapons program had been a source of anxiety for American policymakers ever since the late 1970s when Washington discovered that metallurgist A Q Khan had stolen blueprints for a gas centrifuge uranium enrichment facility.
As a result of Carter’s inaction, Pakistan ended up with nukes.
North Korea
According to the New York Post:
Back in 1994, President Clinton prepared to confront North Korea over CIA reports it had built nuclear warheads and its subsequent threats to engulf Japan and South Korea in “a sea of fire.”
Enter self-appointed peacemaker Carter: The ex-prez scurried off to Pyongyang and negotiated a sellout deal that gave North Korea two new reactors and $5 billion in aid in return for a promise to quit seeking nukes.
Clinton embraced this appeasement as achieving “an end to the threat of nuclear proliferation on the Korean Peninsula” — with compliance verified by international inspectors. Carter wound up winning the Nobel Peace Prize for his dubious efforts.
But in 2002, the North Koreans ’fessed up: They’d begun violating the accord on Day One. Four years later, Pyongyang detonated its first nuke.
President Clinton praised the agreement that led to North Korean having nukes.
Iran
Jimmy Carter allowed the overthrow of the Iranian government in 1979 by holding the Iranian army back from launching a military coup. Carter’s mismanagement ultimately led to Iran’s terrorist state which is responsible for thousands of murders and terrorist actions since coming to power.
Bill Clinton attacked Iraq, Iran’s enemy. Clinton may not have bombed Iraq to help Iran as much as to change the narrative in the US. He ironically found it good timing to bomb Iraq just as it was uncovered that White House intern Monica Lewinsky held a dress that could prove his lying in the scandal that eventually led to his impeachment and disbarment. Clinton’s bombing of Iraq, sometimes referred to as ‘Monica’s War’, helped Iran, the enemy of Iraq.
But Barack Obama is the worst. Shortly after his inauguration Obama pulled troops out of Iraq. In doing this he handed Iraq over to the very entity that was responsible for the deaths of 500 American soldiers in Iraq – Iran.
Next Obama and his Secretaries of State, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry, began building a platform for holding negotiations with Iran. Hillary is referred to as ‘the groundskeeper’ who made the deal possible. Kerry and Obama next stepped in to close the deal.
As explained in Obamabomb: A Dangerous and Growing National Security Fraud, the nuclear deal with Iran and the Obama administration’s defense of it are rife with deceptions and outright lies. False narratives were provided by the Obama administration to the press to praise the terrible deal that involved the Obama administration providing $150 billion in sanctions relief to Iran after Iran complied with certain requirements. Verification of Iran complying with the deal and not working on gaining nuclear bomb capabilities were not in place in the deal and Obama may have broken the law in ensuring the deal’s execution.
Months after it occurred, news broke that the Obama administration secretly sent $400 million in cash equivalents on an unmarked cargo plane to Iran on January 17, 2016, to facilitate a swap that day of four innocent Americans held by Iran. Seven Iranian criminals held by the US were also released. Obama said that it was not a ransom for the release of the prisoners but later the State Department admitted it was. Another $1.3 billion was later reported as also being provided to Iran.
Former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich, stated that nobody could have predicted that the US foreign policy with Iran could have failed so decisively as it did with the Obama/Kerry/Clinton deal with Iran.

President Barak Obama and his Secretaries of State, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry, have made a series of horrible decisions with Iran which have led to disastrous consequences today and will lead to horrors in the near future just as Presidents Clinton and Carter with North Korea.
Donald Trump’s son Eric said that Barak Obama’s actions with Iran led to Trump deciding to run for President:
Donald Trump has been a vocal opponent of the Iran nuclear deal. At a February speech before the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), Trump strongly criticized against the agreement and stated that his “number one priority” if he takes office will be to nix “the disastrous deal with Iran.”
In June of 2016 Obama’s own US State Department reported that Iran is still the leading terrorist state in the world. It is killing more people than ever before and Obama gave them money to ultimately build nukes.
Dangerous Liberal Democrat Presidents Have Made the World a Much More Dangerous Place.
