      Remember that time President Carter arranged to free the hostages, then Ronald Reagan snuck in and had Iran wait on announcing their release until he was inaugurated, so that he could claim credit?

      Oh, and didn’t Nixon pull a similar trick with Vietnam?

      Must be an incoming GOP President maneuver.
