ref the bolded bit. This is going to bite us in the butt. Nations are getting sick to death of the USA using its market power to bully and force others to comply with our desires. we can't keep forcing foreign based corps to bend to our will without expecting their homelands to seek to even the score.

As markets grow in China, India, elsewhere, other countries will soon realize that they have other places where they can buy and sell goods. This "America First" crap will soon come back to bite us when US companies are loosing sales to companies in other countries.
International companies operating inside the US cannot ignore US sanctions or they will find themselves being sanctioned. Europe has nothing to complain about because they along with everyone else were repeatedly warned about this possibility if this didn't go through the Senate for approval. I recall some Iranian leader making joking comments about "Read your Constitution" to those issuing this warning... He won't be making jokes now.
Well now all those congressmen will have an opportunity to vote on decertification, just like repealing the ACA. Except this really makes no sense, he hasn’t even stated specifically the violation and 4 other countries are involved. We already released their funding so what does this accomplish.
No, they owed us. They held 52 civilian Americans hostages for 444 days. So we kept a few billion after Carter and Reagan had disgraced themselves. The cowards got off easy. We should have arrested that little monkey Ahmadinejad when he visited the UN, and nuked their asses. Now they're selling fissionable material and guidance syatems to Kim Bad Hair.
But their time is almost up. Iran deserves everything they've got coming to them.
