Ransom to Iran

Regardless of what they call it, imo there was clearly quid pro quo going on. So it does encourage others to take Americans hostage, rather than the opposite which is the point of the "no ransom" policy.
 
The Obama Administration is going crazy trying to spin this thing but the optics are terrible. Why did they transfer it in physical cash? Why did we they keep it a secret (not even informing Congress until after the fact)? Why did it happen on the same day the hostages were released? Why are the Iranians characterizing it as a ransom payment? Was this flight insured? For how much? What did they claim that the cargo was (for insurance purposes)? What has the money been used for?

I don't see how this can possibly be spun into a positive.

They're done.
 
This is exactly why we need a strong commander in chief. Romney warned you all to increase military spending so this stuff would not happen.
Trump will fix this mess Obamination has put us in. $400000000 could have gone a long ways. Obama can not take care of are vets but he can find $400000000 to give to his Muslim terrorist buddies.
