As the president campaigned for his tax deal we want lower taxes, bigger paychecks. Reporter he also hinted at a major Foreign Policy change. Ill also be announcing, as you know, my statement and what well be doing with respect to the iran deal speaking of badly negotiated deals, okay. Reporter abc news has learned the president is expected to decertify the iran deal as early as friday.
