The agreement with other world powers lifted billions in economic sanctions on Iran in exchange for the country curtailing its nuclear weapons program.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Trump called it \u201cthe worst deal I\u2019ve ever seen negotiated.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">He said he wasn\u2019t outright opposed to the deal, but claimed that it hasn\u2019t been enforced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">\u201cThey\u2019re sending money all over the place and weapons, and you can\u2019t do that,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Asked whether he\u2019d scrap it, Trump said, \u201cWe\u2019ll see what happens.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">He continued, \u201cThat deal, I would have lived with it if they said, OK we\u2019re all together now. But it was just the opposite, it\u2019s like they\u2019re emboldened.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">As for the new sanctions, Trump said, \u201cjust starting.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Trump would not confirm reports that the U.S. has repositioned a key warship, after accusing former President Obama of revealing too much.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">\u201cI won\u2019t give away military secrets,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">As for domestic policy matters, Trump told O\u2019Reilly he intends to have a replacement ready for ObamaCare by the end of the year or in early 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">He acknowledged that replacing the troubled health care law that now covers as many as 20 million Americans is \u201cvery complicated.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Trump also said Americans probably can expect a tax cut sometime in 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">As for his recent calls to foreign leaders, Trump said he has &#8220;respect&#8221; for Russian President Vladimir Putin, but that respect does not mean they&#8217;ll get along.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8220;I say it\u2019s better to get along with Russia than not,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd if Russia helps us in the fight against ISIS, which is a major fight, and Islamic terrorism all over the world &#8212; that\u2019s a good thing. \u2026 Will I get along with him? I have no idea.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Pressed about Putin&#8217;s history of violence, Trump said: &#8220;There are a lot of killers.
