BRET BAIER (HOST): There's frustration about this process, right, after being through everything up to this point. Is that fair?
JOHN THUNE (GUEST): Well, I think that's fair. I give the president great credit for having the guts and the courage to do the hard thing that no president for the last 50 years has been willing to do, and that is to degrade Iran's nuclear capability and significantly diminish their military capabilities in the region. How it winds down now is the thing we're all paying attention to and in that respect, I think it's the old Reagan axiom, you trust but you verify. You got make sure that we got a good path forward here.
BAIER: I don't want to belabor this because we don't have those details, but people who have been talking a lot, like General Jack Keane on our channel, have concerns about just the money part.
...
And you're hearing that a lot from lawmakers in the building behind us.
THUNE: Right, and I think that's the hard question that's got to get asked.
