President Donald Trump stayed in Washington through the holiday weekend to hammer out a “largely negotiated” peace deal with Iran. Many Republicans are deeply skeptical.

“I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran ‘deal,’ being pushed by some voices in the administration,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said in a post Saturday.
