Republican pollster Frank Luntz said remarks made by President Barack Obama at the State of the Union boasting about the Iranian nuclear deal were "some of the worst responses among Republicans" he saw in the entire speech.
"Our group actually let out a howl when Barack Obama said this," Luntz said on Fox News.
