In reply to the discussion: 'Trump loses his hostage': Biden applauded for securing release of Gershkovich and Whelan [View all]TwilightZone
(28,836 posts)43. Exactly.
He likes to brag that he would do things that aren't even in his power to impress his followers. This time, it bit him in the ass.
I'm not sure why anyone ever takes anything he says at face value. There's always an agenda, and he's almost always lying.

GREAT NEWS! That is what I would describe as a Pre-emptive strike against the orange blowhard.

I am shocked that Putin would give Biden/Harris a "win" before the election. I am suspicious of what we gave up.

So grateful these people get to go home to their families. Many do not in Russia. Or Ukraine.
