"the ayatollah trying to think about, 'How do I preserve the regime and the revolution?'"

"The way in which we were able to mount all this pressure and all these sanctions on Iran is because, as Senator Menendez was describing, they engaged in years of cheating on that program."

"It seems to me that the burden is shifting here, that under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, it is almost like we have to prove our case versus that, look, you are in violation."

"If it is true that sanctions did not stop Iran's nuclear program, neither does this negotiated agreement."
