Trump's bullshitting exposed again: he saw some published footage and claimed it was an imaginary secret briefing showing an imaginary ransoming of US hostages from Iran.

The US did return money to Iran after the nuclear deal: money that Iran had paid for US weapons that it never received.

Trump bullshits, not caring that it is unrelated to the truth, because he knows that his supporters will say, "What is truth?"

If the US had ransomed those hostages, who would be responsible? President Reagan. What President Carter did was send soldiers to free the hostages. The operation was unsuccessful, but at least he responded courageously.

Reagan certainly ransomed other hostages later, taken in Lebanon by allies of Iran. That's why I call him a traitor to his country.

Some argue that Reagan made a deal to get Iran to hold the hostages until after the election.
