Remember when Trump and the Republicans ragged on President Obama for returning $1.7 billion of Iran’s money to Iran in exchange for curtailing Iran’s nuclear program. Now, Trump just handed Iran $14 billion with no strings attached while we are at war with Iran.
Trump is a hypocrite, a pathological liar, and incompetent.
Defend that, posters who defend anything and everything that the ignorant and greedy criminal Trump does.
Everything Trump touches, dies.
From the NYT (no gift link to the article that I could find):
An agreement by the Obama administration to send $1.7 billion to Tehran around the same time that it reached a sweeping deal to curtail Iran’s nuclear program drew fierce backlash from Republicans, including Donald J. Trump.
A decade later, the Trump administration is on the defensive as it tries to justify temporarily lifting sanctions on 140 million barrels of Iranian oil that is currently sitting at sea. With oil prices hovering around $100 a barrel, the sanctions relief, which is intended to boost global supplies of crude to ease energy prices, could give Iran a $14 billion windfall at the same time the United States is waging a war on the country.
