This is why Trump pulled out of the nuclear deal with Iran in his own words:

And if you think Trump is so pro-Iran and anti-Israel, you haven't been paying much attention to his actual words.
Literally last night:

Trump wanted to nuke a hurricane, so nuking Iran wouldn't have even been a question to him.
I'm not saying he wouldn't be pro-Israel, but considering how much his words say one thing on the campaign trail, and his actions are generally just whatever he thinks will benefit him the most in the moment, it wouldn't surprise me if Iran could sway him into looking the other way.
That's another issue. That Trump is incredibly easy to manipulate is a whole other ballgame. This guy seems to think that Trump is some sort of pacifist.
So I guess he isn't really Putin's puppet after all?
I thought Putin was in bed with Iran.

So... Trump pulling out of the accord got Iran back on course to developing a nuke, which made them more powerful, which is getting Putin what he wants, which means Trump is not doing what Putin wants?
Interesting reasoning.
You must not be aware of "cognitive dissonance."
Trump is either Putin's puppet or he's worse for Iran than Biden.
You can't have both because Putin supports Iran.
Sorry this had to be spelled out for you, but this is my last reply on the matter.
You may have the last word.
Believe it or not, he can both do what Putin wants sometimes and then not do what Putin wants other times. That's the problem with using a crazy person as an end to your means.
Incidentally, your praise of Trump is interesting considering you said this a short time ago-
This was by far the dumbest comment chain I have ever read to the end. I know you thought you sounded smug and smart, but jesus was it cringe.
Yeah.
That's a normal reaction when being faced with your cognitive dissonance.
