Two Americans were freed under Obama’s watch.
Too bad Obama didn't have a thing to do with getting either one released.
I guess Trump didn’t have a thing to do with this one then either....hmmm
Sorry, no. I know you'd like to THINK that though, Little Kim has already said he is releasing these guys as a show of good faith. He wants to keep America and Trump in his good graces. As to the two folks under Obama, I remember the one case very well as I followed it closely. It involved a sergeant Tahmooressi and then-news anchor Greta Van Sustern who was directly involved in his release.
The guy had simply made a wrong turn into Mexico by accident and was arrested and detained for a year and tortured, to the point he tried to commit suicide. Try as they did to appeal for their help, no one in Obama's troupe would lift a finger to get him out. Obama the guy with his pen and telephone couldn't be bothered to make a call. Greta and others finally got him released on their own efforts negotiating directly with Mexican authorities as this article details.

Oh and another small detail not generally well known: sometime after his release, Trump gave him a check for an undisclosed large amount of money to help him get himself back on his feet. The guy had just come back from the Middle East and was suffering from PTSD. Jackass Obama never even gave the guy a hello.
