Leave it to CNN to go to the streets of Tehran for commentary on the Republican presidential primary (h/t email tipster Robert).

"We showed Iranians photos of GOP candidates. They said this," blared the headline on CNN.com this afternoon.

Clicking the link takes readers to a story by Frederick Pleitgen and Nick Thompson headlined "We showed Iranians photos of Republican candidates -- here's what they told us." Pleitgen and Thompson filed their story from the capital of the Islamic Republic of Iran and asked passersby what they thought of Donald Trump, Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina, and Ben Carson and, more particularly, their stances on the nuclear deal President Obama has reached with the theocratic regime.

I'll just leave this there. You can read the full piece and watch the corresponding video here.
