Why didn't Trump get Paul Whelan out of Russia?

[dudmuck]

It wasn't on his radar at the time. And he was a little busy with all your FALSE ACCUSATIONS and the fires (literal in many cases) that he had to deal with from the commie left

9 hours of ‘Executive Time’: Trump’s unstructured days define his presidency

The president’s schedule shows huge swaths of his day unplanned, allowing his whims and momentary interests to drive White House business.

You do realize you are posting a thread that makes Trump look good, right?

Interesting. Trump couldn’t be bothered to get Americans out of False Imprisonment around the world. But this makes him look good. I get it. We needed to wait for Dennis Rodman.

Trump Was ‘Not Particularly Interested’ In Freeing Paul Whelan: Ex-WH Official​

"He was not particularly interested in Paul’s case in the way that one would have thought he would be," Fiona Hill said after Trump criticized the prisoner swap.

Former President Donald Trump was “not particularly interested” in freeing former Marine Paul Whelan from a Russian prison while he was in office, a former White House national security official said Sunday following incendiary complaints by Trump that more hasn’t been done for Whelan.

“I also have to say here that President Trump wasn’t especially interested in engaging in that swap for also Paul Whelan,” Fiona Hill, a former National Security Council Russia specialist, said in an interview with CBS News’ “Face the Nation.” “He was not particularly interested in Paul’s case in the way that one would have thought he would be.”

Hill said that a prisoner swap was raised several times by Russian officials who “had every intent” on trading Americans wrongfully detained overseas for individuals in U.S. custody.

you are whining because TRUMP didn't, but you're in favor of trading a global arms dealer for a useless TWAT, that hates AMERICA----you are 1 fucked up SCUM demonRAT

So only some Americans deserve the full protection of the nation. I guess the Constitution doesn’t mean shit to you.

And you call others scum.

I see a lot of panicked deflection from the Trumptards but no answer to the OP question.

"Wasn't on his radar"?!?!?

Russian spy/Republican operative Maria Butina was sent home from Tallahassee's Federal Detention Center

She served the MAXIMUM possible sentence in prison and then was immediately deported, you stupid pathetic bitch.

What about 2021?

and Biden basically traded AL Capone for a jaywalker.


I've got an old rusty bike, with a flat tire.

Care to trade your car for it?

That would make you as smart as Biden.

What about 2021? Had the job been done in 2019 or 2020 there would be no need for 2021.

Is that why Trump was a ONE and DONE, because he was just one helluva president, I think not.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Should Trump have nuked Russia? What do you suggest that ANY of you Trump haters would have approved of?

It is Trump Humpers who are whining.

I think not.

You think, NOT

anyone with a brain should be whining about this lopsided deal.

Obviously Americans didn't think he was worth anything either.

It makes him look good, because he wasn't willing to give up the 'Merchant of Death' for an American with a very checkered history.

So again, only some Americans are entitled to or protected by the Constitution. Got it.

 

[bodecea]

good for you. now replace Trump with the name of the guy in your avatar

Putin....why won't MAGAts blame Putin? Is it because they are all in for him?

 

[whitehall]

Trump couldn't get a better deal than turning over an international monster. Isn't that simple enough for a small minded leftie?

 

[Synthaholic]

She served the MAXIMUM possible sentence in prison and then was immediately deported, you stupid pathetic bitch.

So why didn't Trump trade Butina for Whelan?

So why didn't Trump trade Butina for Whelan?

Because that makes no sense whatsoever, stupid jackass party of slavery supporter.

Trump didn't get him out in 2018, after his imprisonment in Russia.
Trump didn't get him out in 2019.
Trump didn't get him out in 2020.

Why not?

Trump: "I like Putin. I think he likes me." Ok. I definitely believe you, Donald. Why didn't you use that mutual admiration to get a U.S. Marine out of a Russian prison?

Russian spy/Republican operative Maria Butina was sent home from Tallahassee's Federal Detention Center into Vladimir's loving arms to become a member of the Politburo and to be feted as a great patriot of Mother Russia, for hoodwinking the entire Republican Party.

What did Donald Trump get for releasing Maria Butina? Nothing. Why didn't he trade her for Paul Whelan?

Putin didn’t give Biden any choice.

 

[blackhawk]

Trumps failure to do so does not excuse Biden’s.

 

[TNHarley]

Probably the same reason nobody would trade for him. The guy putin wanted is responsible for thousands of deaths.
Well nobody except for your pandering pedo rican -n-chief.
