He made the remarks while speaking to reporters at his private golf club in New Jersey on Thursday. Last month Trump was forced to back off from a key campaign promise to withdraw from the nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. Trump had described it as "the worst deal ever" and accused Iran of continuing to back terrorism in the Middle East.
