Trump lies about money paid to Iran

Harris L Uncategorized December 12, 2018 1 Minute

We’ve been over this again and again. He just lies.

Obama didn’t give money to Iran. He returned money that was already theirs.

Reminder: this was not US taxpayer funds. It was Iran’s money frozen overseas. https://t.co/8qPKc28ttf

Obama didn’t give Iran $150B. It was $1.7B and it was to settle an old debt: https://t.co/a1XKGwWHkt https://t.co/OjXoC8XcWM

Several lies here. The $150 billion estimate is wrong. The reduced sanctions released some money that was already Iran’s—not new spending by US taxpayers (as Trump is now proposing for the wall)—and they got the Iran nuclear deal, which Trump’s own advisers agree was working. https://t.co/VLAOQIsddv
