Rush Limbaugh
With the ultimate fate of Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran hanging in the balance, radio host Rush Limbaugh is suggesting four Americans held in the Islamic Republic will be released as part of a secret agreement.
“The Ayatollah Khamenei will release the four American hostages, and it’ll be said to be following a great diplomatic series of maneuvers by Obama and Kerry,” Limbaugh said Tuesday on his national broadcast.
“I think it’s been set up from the get-go as part of the Iran deal. … It’s kind of masterful, actually, when you stop and think of it.”
The Washington Post reported Monday that “the Iran deal is hemorrhaging support.”
A Quinnipiac University poll shows 57 percent against and just 28 percent in favor. The two-to-one negative split is by far the worst poll yet for the deal.
“Voters say 58 to 30 percent the nuclear pact will make the world less safe,” the poll noted.
“If others have made this prediction, fine, I haven’t heard it, and so I’m not trying to claim any thunder,” said Limbaugh, “but I think those four hostages the Iranians are holding are for just this moment. …
“I don’t believe – no matter what you might think of Kerry and Obama – that in these negotiations they didn’t mention these four hostages.”
“Let me put it this way,” he continued, “Don’t be surprised, if you wake up one day and the lead story from the Today show to ‘Good Morning America’ is the four hostages, American hostages in Iran have been released. …
“I think those four people are being held in case they’re needed, case their release is needed, because I don’t care what Obama says about not needing congressional approval. He cares about his legacy, and he wants his legacy to contain either the insinuation or the direct statement that everything he did had massive support. He doesn’t want his legacy to be that everything he did was essentially governing against the will of the people.
“So he’s gonna look at this opposition to the Iran deal and see a threat to his legacy, and he’ll want to save the threat. The details of the deal are irrelevant to him. As long as he’ll be the one to say, ‘The only president to secure an agreement with Iran, period.’ No matter whatever else follows is irrelevant. Even if they get a nuke in ten years, it doesn’t matter. ‘No other president got ‘em to agree to anything, only Obama!’”
