During a back-and-forth with reporters after announcing a prisoner swap deal with Russia on Thursday, a visibly testy and confused President Joe Biden tried to blame his predecessor and possible successor, Donald Trump, for not rescuing hostages that were taken after Biden took office.
Biden, who inserted a churlish partisan dig at Trump into his announcement of the deal with Russia, was attempting to depart from the podium when a reporter noted that Trump has “said repeatedly that he could’ve gotten the hostages out without giving anything in exchange.”
“Why didn’t he do it when he was president?” Biden snapped before marching off the stage.
As the Republican National Committee immediately pointed out, Russia seized two of the three American hostages freed in the deal Biden announced on Thursday after Biden took office:

​

Commentary:
By the way, we all know Biden gave up a ton more than the Russians to make a deal. Then the sick old man has the chutzpah to accuse Trump of not doing enough when the Americans were captured after Biden took office, and the sad part is a lot of people are going to believe him.
Democrat beo-Marxist oath. Never accept responsibility; Always blame someone else
Call everyone racist or homophobes if they Don’t agree

So why didn't trump get the hostage taken under his watch and presidency home? Was it too hard for him? Or he just didn't care to spend time on it? Or it was too complicated for him?

Trump admin and Trump made Hostage EXCHANGES.

Deals are made with exchanges, that's how our guys and gals get home.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/01/politics/fact-check-trump-falsely-claims-he-gave-up-nothing-american-prisoner-exchanges/index.html

A 2019 exchange with Iran

In 2019, the Trump administration secured the release of Xiyue Wang, a Princeton University PhD student who had been imprisoned in Iran since 2016, by agreeing to free an Iranian medical scientist who had been charged with trying to export biological materials from the US to Iran without authorization.

Trump acknowledged at the time that this was a prisoner exchange, telling reporters in 2019: “Yeah, we’re very happy to have our hostage back. The whole Princeton University community is very thrilled. And there was a one-on-one hostage swap.”

Federal prosecutors also dropped charges against the Iranian scientist’s two co-defendants soon after the prisoner exchange.

A 2019 exchange with the Taliban

In 2019, three high-ranking Taliban prisoners, who had been imprisoned by the government of Afghanistan, were released in exchange for the Taliban freeing two professors, American Kevin King and Australian Timothy Weeks, who were abducted in 2016. Trump and the president of Afghanistan made clear that the Trump administration was involved in the deal; Trump wrote on social media when the deal was announced: “Proud of my team!”

A 2020 exchange with Iran

In 2020, the Trump administration secured the release of Navy veteran Michael White, who had been imprisoned in Iran since 2018, by agreeing to free an Iranian-American doctor who had pleaded guilty to violating US sanctions on Iran by trying to export a medical device there without authorization.

Trump wrote on social media at the time: “Thank you to Iran, it shows a deal is possible!”

A 2020 exchange with the Iran-backed Houthis

In 2020, the Trump administration secured the release of two Americans who were imprisoned by Iran-backed Houthi militants in Yemen, aid worker Sandra Loli and businessman Mikael Gidada, in exchange for the release of more than 200 Houthi militants who were being held in Oman. Those Houthis were allowed to return to Yemen.

An attempted 2018 exchange with Turkey

Trump said in August 2018 that he had personally gotten Israel to free a Turkish citizen who had been charged with aiding Hamas as part of an attempted arrangement in which Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan would release American pastor Andrew Brunson.

Erdogan did not do so immediately, prompting Trump to criticize him. Erdogan released Brunson in October 2018.

Trump tweeted upon the release that “there was NO DEAL made with Turkey” and added, “I don’t make deals for hostages,” but his administration had already made clear that they had thought earlier in the year that there had been a deal.

So why didn't trump get the hostage taken under his watch and presidency home? Was it too hard for him? Or he just didn't care to spend time on it? Or it was too complicated for him?

Because Trump wasn't in office. If you want Trump to do Biden's job then what's the point of leaving Biden in the White House.

 

[mudwhistle]

Trump could have never pulled off the diplomacy required for such an endeavor.

According to you assholes Trump and Putin are best buddies. So now you claim he couldn't talk Putin into releasing these political prisoners.

Make up your f*cking mind.

Is Trump friends with Russia or not????

 

[1srelluc]

From my understanding the guy who got them released was a Trump appointee....I guess the leftists missed one.
