TYT: Rally Against Iran Deal Draws Only A Handful



Conservatives recently held an anti-Iran nuclear deal rally, but only a couple hundred people showed up. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

Conservative radio host Glenn Beck was behind the stage, pacing as he practiced his speech; former Alaska governor Sarah Palin was answering every question thrown at her by a small gaggle in the shade of a tree while Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson stood impassively nearby; and 2012 presidential candidate Michele Bachmann mingled with other VIPs.

Along with gay marriage and Obamacare upheld, and the failure of their last stand smear against PP the conservative extremists heads have exploded one too many times to ever recover.
