Former President Donald Trump thinks President Joe Biden made a major misstep when agreeing to the prisoner swap with Iran that unfroze $6 billion in oil assets for one of our biggest political enemies.
“This absolutely ridiculous 6 Billion Dollar Hostage Deal with Iran has set a terrible PRECEDENT for the future,” Trump posted Monday on TRUTH Social as the five Americans were freed. “Buckel up, you are going to see some terrible things start to happen.
“The 3 years ago highly respected USA has become a laughingstock all over the WORLD. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. VOTE TRUMP!!!”
“I brought 58 HOSTAGES home from many different countries, including North Korea, and I never paid anything,” Trump added. “They all understood they MUST LET THESE PEOPLE COME HOME! Toward the end, it got so that countries didn’t even start the conversation asking for money, because they knew they would not get it.”
“Once you pay, you always pay, & MANY MORE HOSTAGES WILL BE TAKEN,” Trump warned. “Our grossly incompetent ‘leader,’ Crooked Joe Biden, gave 6 BILLION DOLLARS for 5 people. Iran gave ZERO for 5. He’s Dumb as a ROCK!”
