It didn't help that Reagan was cutting secret deals with the Iranians

Guffaw. Yep, he made sure the Iranians took the embassy over a year
before the election, he made sure that two chopper ran into each other
and crashed at Desert 1 to foil the rescue, etc. etc. etc.

Carter wasn't the operational guy out in the desert in charge of keeping
choppers apart. But Reagan DID have his hand in the scheme to hang
onto our guys until after the election.
