I think we could have brought them to the table with the sanction pressure we had in place. we could have insisted upon the stopping of terrorism being exported out that country, but he takes the position of all he wanted was this nuclear agreement, which my takeaway from that wolf is that the president you that he couldnt get any of these other things and he kept getting narrower and narrower with this agreement to where he got one thing. the good news is the united states senate will have the ...

Anticipate restoring full diplomatic relations with iran soon. >> lots talk about the criticism, republicans and democrats are delivering since the deal. concern about the 24-day period that the iranians would have before any inspectors would come to suspected sites. they say 24 days is way too long. to which you say? >> i say, wolf that is a misplaced concern. let sxhe plain why. in this very strong deal there will be 24/7 presence of both inspectors and cameras and surveillance at all of irans...

Inspectors that go into iran to take a look because the u.s. does not have full diplomatic relations with iran. what does the administration say about that? >> that was a concession made during this negotiating process and its essentially because the iranians dont trust the americans to do a credible job of inspections so what youll see unfold i think, wolf is yes youre going to have a daily routine inspection of the known sites that have been a part of the iranian nuclear lexicon for some five ...

Inspection and verification regime ever negotiated. without a deal those inspections go away. we lose the ability to closely monitor irans program and detect any covert nuclear weapons program. with this deal if iran violates its commitments, there will be real consequences. nuclear-related sanctions that have helped to cripple the iranian economy will snap back into place. without a deal the international sanctions regime will unravel with little ability to reimpose them. with this deal we have...

Then all of the activities that the israelis and republicans are worried about about supporting terrorism, the houthi rebels, the assad regime that becomes much much worse because you have potentially a nuclear state in tehran. so thats anningment you will hear from the president that its much easier to keep a lid on iran. thats why hillary clinton when she was on capitol hill you heard her say this is an important first step to keep a lid on the iran nuclear program. the question becomes for hi...

Ask about those suspicious sites. and wolf theres also the legacy issue. weve been talking about this over the last couple days, the president staking his legacy on this issue and that is if all of this can get through congress. as you know, the president has offered to veto or decide head will veto legislation that threaten this is deal. that would obviously set up a situation where congress would have to override that veto. they would need a two-thirds street do that. the white house is confid...

Them that has surfaced out there in the public square. >> governor huckabee, thanks very much for joining us. >> thank you, wolf. great to be with you. >> lets get some more reaction now to the presidents speech more analysis. i want to bring in gloria borger and our panel here to discuss whats going on lisa labbitt and dana bash and fareed zakaria. how did the president do gloria? >> this was the first press conference i watched where the president asked and answered his own question. it was cl...

White house correspondents during the clinton administration and both asked questions. >> i think i would have framed the question differently, you know wolf if you wanted a real blend. i think the real question the real point is theres some strayedoffs here. who is holding? -- who do we believe is behind this holding of americans? iran and arresting "the washington post" journalist. its the people who dont want this deal. the united states said were not going to do anything until these people a...

In the last 36 years or whether they follow every detail of the deal. >> but the president says for all practical purposes irans program is going to be dramatically diminished any effort that they are going to try to do to develop some sort of nuclear weapon for the next 10 years, maybe 15 years, give this an opportunity to succeed, he says. >> wolf its simply not the case. think about whats going to happen in the short time putting aside their nuclear program. in the coming months iran is going...

>> so wolf, the backdrop of this is a tweet that came from condition at that may or may not have been related to el chapo. so thats the reason why the fbi is looking into it and obviously the context of this is trump making some inflammatory comments over the past month or so about mexico mexican illegal immigrants which, of course he has been trying to clarify ever since. wolf? >> good work over there, dana bash on the scene covering donald trump. much more later today. still ahead, the reality...
