It's hard to fathom how stupid Ivy Leaguers can be.  I know he knows better... but if Putin really wanted to make Trump look strong, wouldn't he wait until January 20th... like the Iranians did for Reagan?

Inflation is coming down, interest rates are coming down, and gas prices will drop all because Donnie is on the horizon.  It's so boringly predictable and fake, but the MAGA faithful will cheer on Orange Jesus for just being so powerful that leaders all bow to his unmatched strength.

“Are we releasing murderers, killers, or thugs? Just curious because we never make good deals, at anything, but especially hostage swaps,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “They are extorting the United States of America. They’re calling the trade ‘complex’ – That’s so nobody can figure out how bad it is!”

“We have to ask ourselves, why are they coming home? And I think it’s because bad guys all over the world recognize Donald Trump’s about to be back in office, so they’re cleaning house,” Ohio Sen. JD Vance said in an interview with CNN’s Steve Contorno on Thursday. “That’s a good thing, and I think it’s a testament to Donald Trump’s strength.”

I'm sure Trump has already "truthed" something stupid like "I would have had them home years ago...and wouldn't have given up so many bad guys to get them".  

Of course... Whelan has been there since 2018

"This deal would not have been made possible without our allies. Germany, Poland, Slovenia, Norway, and Turkey, they all stepped up and they stood with us. They stood with us, and they made bold and brave decisions, released prisoners being held in their countries who were justifiably being held and provided logistical support to get the Americans home. So, for anyone who questions whether allies matter, they do. They matter," he said.

You can send him an email from the White House page, and thank him directly (that’s what I did). I doubt he’ll see your message here.
