quote:

Former President Donald Trump criticized a proposed deal to swap WNBA player Brittney Griner for a Russian arms dealer, calling Griner a "potentially spoiled person."


quote:

"She went in there loaded up with drugs into a hostile territory where they're very vigilant about drugs. They don't like drugs," Trump said. "And she got caught. And now we're supposed to get her out – and she makes, you know, a lot of money, I guess – and we're supposed to get her out for an absolute killer and one of the biggest arms dealers in the world."


quote:

"He's going to get a free card, and we're gonna get her," Trump said. "She knew you don't go in there loaded up with drugs, and she admitted it. I assume she admitted it without too much force because it is what it is."

The former president added: "It certainly doesn't seem like a very good trade, does it? He's an absolute– one of the worst in the world, and he's going to be given his freedom because a potentially spoiled person goes into Russia loaded up with drugs."

“Potentially” spoiled person?

Most athletes are spoiled. This bitch is well beyond that.

“It’s society’s fault I had to ball in Russia because the WNBA didn’t pay!”

“Who packed your luggage to take illegal drugs to Russia?”

“… That was different!”

I never understood why the US government should be involved in getting someone out of prison in a country where they broke the laws...

Agree with all of that. Trading a terrorist for her is not worth our time. If we really want her back (why?), then we should arrest a Russian celebrity on trumped up charges and trade that person for her.

The sad thing about this whole Griner fiasco is that Paul Whelan, the other American being held prisoner in Russia, has been there for 2 years or so with no urgency from the U.S. government to get him out, apparently.
Along comes Griner, with her banned substances in Russia, and she gets caught and incarcerated. She's a black lesbian who plays basketball in the WNBA with a wife who calls out the Biden folks for not doing enough to get Griner freed.
The left-leaning, woke mainstream media jumps on the bandwagon and suddenly, a deal is being offered for the release of both, Griner and Whelan.
Whelan is only part of the deal because, could you imagine the outrage if Griner was freed and not him?
I want to see both freed but so sad that one has been there for 2 years while the other has been there for around 5 months.

It takes a special type of lowlife to talk dirty about a woman held in a foreign country on trumped up charges. But Trump is a special type of lowlife.

Trump is right. Biden is desperate though with the midterms coming up. That's why the DNC, corporate media got that goofy arse Time mag cover trying to tie Brittney up with slavery. That shite tells you that DNC shite is done.

She has the ego of Lebron James, but none of his athleticism. She may even be dumber than Lebron. I doubt we'd see Lebron going to a strict anti-drug country that is percieved to be our enemy... with drugs.

Weed isn't even universally legal here in America , but she brought that shite to a place like Russia?

He says that but he would absolutely cut a deal for her release just so he could be the hero and she would have to publically thank him

He is spot on! Griner is not a victim of anything but arrogance and stupidity.

He also said he'd build a wall and have Mexico pay for it, that he would lock Hillary up if elected, and that Dr Birx was trustworthy. He's full of shite.

Haha. Everyone knows that your cult leader, and by extension his supporters, have had their lips permanently glued to Vladimir Putin's arse, thereby designating his supporters and Trump himself as traitors to the United States of America, and the Constitution.
This pattern the right-wing has adopted of criticizing, and downright bashing American citizens while at the same time praising and capitulating to dictators around the world is just not a good look for you guys.?? Naturally it took Joe Biden, a Democrat, to gain back the respect the United States had before Donald Trump and his supporters got his greasy hands on our country for four solid years. Thank God the nightmare is over and will never have to worry about Trump again. He will be in prison, under house arrest, or he will flee to one of his pals ruling autocratic dictatorships because that is as close as he will get to his own vision of being crowned a king.
I have to admit seeing Trump, and his cronies being raked across the coals by the bipartisan January 6th committee does provide me a small guilty pleasure, especially watching his pitiful attempt to use his majority uneducated, inbred constituents to incite an insurrection to injure and kill the very police force that Republicans have always vowed to stand 100% behind."We've Got Your Back" while stabbing someone in the back has to be one of the ultimate, historic betrayals of people who lay their life on the line every single day.

"She went in there loaded up with drugs into a hostile territory where they're very vigilant about drugs".

Griner accidentally packed a vape pen with a small amount of marijuana. That doesn't make Donald Trump's above quote an outright lie, but God damn people, are you so pathetic, that you would take the out of context, and grossly misleading statement without actually watching 5 minutes of actual news to obtain the actual facts without shooting off your mouths and doing the minimum amount of fact checking accuracy to back up the willfully ignorant, and misleading claims against Brittney Griner.
If things are so bad for you guys living in a country presided over by a Democrat, I'm sure there is plenty of room for you in say, Russia, China, North Korea, or if the Middle Eastern style is more your flavor, there is always Turkey,

By the way, Trump would like to thank all of you who donated to his "re-election". It's a good thing he is keeping those hard-earned donations in his personal account.????


What a bunch of misogynistic, racist, and willfully ignorant ??????!!
