You see, it’s because of President Obama that hostages were taken in the first place. Never happens during other presidents. Just Obama. Let’s not celebrate freedom for the former prisoners and a diplomatic victory for the United States; let’s just say something that that will help advance the presidential ambitions of an absentee senator.

Rubio was asked about the swap after a campaign event in Iowa today (before official confirmation came in), and according to Time Magazine, he said, “If these reports are true, of course we’re happy for them and their families, but they should have never been there.”

He was incredibly critical of the idea of a prisoner swap, invoking Bowe Bergdahl and “other things” to say the president has “created an incentive for more governments to do this around the world.”

Rubio said he wants to see exactly “what concessions Iran gained beyond massive sanctions relief,” especially considering that the Americans being held in Iran did absolutely nothing wrong.

How about, for just one day, celebrating the release of Americans. Then go back to your continual bashing a few hours later.
