Why is the return of our hostages not a much bigger deal?

I mean it’s not even on Drudge and is buried way down on Breitbart.

Personally I feel this is the best moment of Trump’s Presidency so far, because nobody can deny that this is a wonderful achievement. There is no spin.

Am I missing something? Didn’t Reagan receive a ton of praise for getting the Iranian hostages freed in 1979?

Yeah but why are Drudge and Breitbart not running with it? It’s not just the MSM that’s ignoring it - it’s our side too

It's insulting to these prisoners that people like cahoots, pointsincase, tigerdoc, and decatur aren't even giving a shite, and instead bitching about trump's lawyer.

IT IS EMPHATICALLY CLEAR AT THIS POINT THAT THESE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TRUMP TO SUCCEED, AND WOULD RATHER HE FAIL, EVEN IF IT HURT PEOPLE.

I’m glad any hostages are free. Would be better if someone didn’t constantly lie but at end of day hostage release is good.

Obama got more press trading 5 terrorists for a trader.

It's pathetic and expected.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders was on Martha’s show tonight, and she was asked that very question. SHS said she was shocked/disgusted that fewer than 50% of the questions in today’s WH press briefing were about the hostages. She stated that the press asked just as many questions about Cohen.

Obama released quite a few hostages from North Korea, it is not that uncommon.

He was not after praise 24/7 though like trump.

Yeah, we got back a criminal Bergdahl and a 95% dead hostage from NORK under Obama and the media was all over it.

Someone needs to tell ISIS that the NYT is doing caricatures of Mohammad. Let them handle it.

Maybe some beheadings will set some people straight.

Dead ones? Link to a list of hostages?

This is Trump's first hostage. He deserves to be excited about it.

I've been giving the MSM the benefit of the doubt for years now. No more. Gloves are off. They are legitimate enemies of the state.

I’ve received quite a few alerts this morning from the typical MSM apps. CNN covered it on air
