So what you are saying is that Obama was as bad as Trump at warmongering while being far more liked in the rest of the world? Because the 1 billion dollars belonged to Iran and as far as I know, Trump hasn´t done anything about them. He didn´t pull out of Syria, drone strikes has escalated under Trump and is was Obama, not Trump who put sanctions in place against NK. I agree that ISIS has been a catastrophy but it is not because of the US; had the US gotten involved even more, ISIS would have become even bigger. But thanks to surrounding countries n the middle-east, ISIS has been mostly beaten.

Trump Warmongering? lmao what wars has he started tell me? The 1 billion dollars that Obama gave to Iran was used to fund Terrorists that money didn't belong to them it was part of the Iran Nuclear Deal.  Obama also funded terrorists in Syria. Also Trump put harder sanctions on NK and even had cooperation from China to put harder sanctions on them, and guess what it has worked. He also traded terrorists for an American traitor.

My english might be bad, but warmongering isn´t the same as starting wars, right? And the drone strikes doubled under Trumps first year compared to Obama, so they are both pretty bad.

And regarding the debt to Iran, The Washington Post gives a very thourough resume of events and the decisions that have been made: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2018/03/01/was-obamas-1-7-billion-cash-deal-with-iran-prohibited-by-u-s-law/?utm_term=.d919f6d155ba

And what difference does it make where the money goes (and please provide proof that they have funded terrorism)? The money still belonged to Iran and the US got a lot in return for the cash.

You have no idea if the sanctions against NK worked, you could look back to -94 for proof that NK rarely keep their word, but we can hope that they have and I would be very happy if they were succesful. But they wouldn´t be possible without the sanctions that Obama and congress put in place in 2016: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-35828831
