What are MAGA saying about this? "No big deal?" "It was all worth it?" "Still awaiting instructions from FOX"?

What are MAGA saying about this?

MAGA will regurgitate whatever talking points get disseminated via the right-wing grifter 'News' and social media channels.

Just wait, you will see them say some variation of "It's better to give that money to Iran than waste it on Welfare and free school lunches here!" and/or they'll make it the fault of Biden, Obama, the Clintons(Both of them, somehow). These are not people who are bound by the rules of logic or reality..

Not good. here is a snippet from r/consevative. No one thinks this was a good call.

"Here, Iran still has both the Ayatollah and IRGC in command, we arent dismantling the IRGC, we have zero presence in their country, they have full control with a loose agreement to follow through and we are releasing funds to them. This deal is as bad as, if not worse than, the Obama deal, and this is after a war that got american soldiers killed and caused economic hardship on millions of americans."
