| Description | Despite Donald Trump’s claim of having seen video footage of the $400 million cash delivery to Iran having been acknowledge as false by his own campaign, the Manhattan billionaire kicked off a rally Thursday afternoon by repeating the tall tale.
At a rally Wednesday in Florida, Trump said Iran had captured video of the arrival of the cash payment from the United States, money the Republican nominee alleged was paid to free American prisoners held by the Iranian government despite the Obama administration's insistence there was no quid pro quo arrangement. Trump said he had seen the footage, which he said Iran released to “embarrass us further.” |
