Good point!

The first point was obvious. Second point is even better. You got to know when to walk away from a deal. Obviously he did. I know it pains you to see all the people above that Trump got freed without giving up nothing.

Leverage 101, We got all the cards in our favor but when you have a President that is a Communist Vegetable you end with the trade we got today.

 

And he applies this strategy in every deal, America last.

Energy, Afghanistan, the border, I could go all day.

Well… my understanding is majority of America loves it that this Administration along with all Democrats an some Republicans put America last. Putting America last wins elections now days. Who would ever thunk it.

Yes, who would’ve thunk it?  Beats my 4 Aces.  How did we, the public, come to favoring America last?  I’m confused.  Totally.

Can you imagine the headlines if Trump traded one of the biggest terrorist in the world "TO RUSSIA" for a basketball player.

I think this is the first WNBA trade anyone has ever cared about.

I would agree, trading these two set a terrible precedent that we are weak and stupid, which the current administration is both.

Made me puke. God help us.

Amazing how this ridiculous swap didn’t happen right before the midterms and the Georgia runoff. Smh

Should've done a 2 for 1 deal... get both out or neither

I disagree. Should’ve never exchanged for the merchant of death whatsoever. It’s a frickin travesty.

Absolutely right, this guy is going right back to work.

Still can’t phantom how we leave a Marine there.  This administration is an absolute joke!  Explain how Griner is more valuable of an American than Whelan?  Big girl, UT alum, nappyroots, DontheCon, anybody dare to try and give a logical answer?  Please enlighten us!

Fair enough, I also don't think tax dollars should be wasted on him... if he's as bad as the "reports" he should've been dealt with JMO

He had the option to swap Whelan for the merchant of death and turned it down, which was the right thing to do.

Educate yourself.

So pretty much a U.S. marine who served for our country wasn't worth a swap for the merchant of death when he haf a chance to get him out? Got it

Also if he had sold these weapons or not we still have the same problem going on now that he's in prison, remember "guns don't kill, stupid ppl with guns kill" deal with the terrorists

Americans will die because of this swap, no, I don't think you get it.

I guess whenever we have a high value terrorist, all the bad guys have to do is arrest an American and swap them out.

Great strategy.

I read that the USA wanted to trade the marine and Griner for that Russian guy. The Russians were not willing to make a trade for the marine. The marine's family told Biden to make the trade for Brittney because their son wasn't going to be released, and it wasn't fair to make her stay in Russia.
