Many experts believe that the nuclear deal struck with Iran under former President Barack Obama's administration was a danger to the United States and the rest of the world. 

According to Fox News, one of the people responsible for helping to make that deal happen, which former President Donald Trump later canceled, believes Vice President Kamala Harris, if elected, will pursue a new Iran nuclear deal.

Joel Rubin, a Democratic strategist and former Obama administration deputy assistant secretary of state for legislative affairs to the House, said Harris could look at the possibility of restarting the nuclear deal.

He described her as a "realistic" president who would likely try to make it happen.

What's going on?

Rubin explained why he believes Harris, if she wins in November, would try to restart the nuclear deal.

"The idea that the old nuclear deal can just be restarted, we're past that. Iran's progress on its nuclear program has exceeded the previous limitations… a firm, verifiable nuclear deal that corrals and runs the ability to accelerate the nuclear weapon, that has to be the goal," Rubin said.

He added, ""The best way to do that is a nuclear agreement that's firm and verified… Any realistic president would go for that. And that’s Kamala Harris, she's a realistic president-to-be."

Fox News noted:

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly known as the Iran nuclear deal, was signed in 2015 by Iran, members of the United Nations National Security Council, and the European Union.

Trump scored a huge victory with his base in 2018 by pulling out of the deal, and infuriated Democrats who helped Obama put it into action.

Social media reacts

The idea of VP Harris going for a new nuclear deal with Iran didn't go over well with most.

"Never appease an enemy, they will push for more and more. Kamala is a joke, " one X user wrote.

Another X user wrote, "Comrade Kamala and Dougie are thinking about getting a second home in Tehran a nice summer home right next to Ayatollah Austin’s summer home."

The idea of Harris pursuing another nuclear deal with one of America's top enemies is a joke, and a dangerous one at that.
