Cardin should stick to his opposition to the Iran deal

- Thomas McDonough, Towson

I do not know, as your opinion writer suggests, whether Sen. Ben Cardin is “critical” to the continuati­on of the Iran nuclear agreement (“Sen. Cardin critical to preserving Iran nuclear deal,” Feb. 11), but I hope he is at least consistent in his position. I was disappoint­ed that the senator did not oppose the Iran deal until it was clear that the Obama administra­tion had the votes to pass it. Nothing could have been clearer than the fact that Senator Cardin’s constituen­cy vehemently opposed the Iran deal. I would hope that when the issue is raised we might expect statesmans­hip as opposed to political expediency or anti-Trumpism to win out.
