Did US Send $400 Million to Iran as Ransom for Hostages?

Donald Trump and Obama

Did the US pay $400-million to Iran in exchange for them releasing four American hostages? That’s the news circling the block today as the Wall Street Journal reported on the details of the transaction. Since there are laws against using US funds to make the transaction with Iran, the payment was made using euros, Swiss francs, and other currencies. The money was flown in on a plane to Iran on the same day that Iran released four American prisoners.

The US insists that the payment happened to coincide with the release but was not negotiated together and was actually part of a $1.7-billion arms settlement the US owes to Iran. The $400-million was just a down payment of sorts. Critics aren’t buying it and are already bashing the Obama administration for paying ransom.

Not to be left out of anything having to do with bashing someone, Donald Trump took to the campaign trail.

“We paid $400 million for the hostages,” Trump said. “Such a bad precedent was set by Obama. We have two more hostages there right? What’s are we going to pay for them?”

Expect this to be something Trump pivots to after the disastrous war of words he had with the gold star Kahn family. After all, ala the great Pet Detective theory of Finkle is Einhorn, Obama is Hillary. Hillary is Obama.
