Just my theory... with some evidence re: Trump and Brittney Griner

[WarGamer]

So I'm exploring the underbelly of Twitter and run across a tweet with audio of Sean Hannity saying he'd like Trump to go to Russia and negotiate a deal for the release of Griner.

2 things

1) Hannity literally has an open line to Trump. Rumors were circulating that Trump spoke to him nearly daily in 2020.

2) It's actually just the slimy kind of thing Trump would do.

He'd fuel up the 757, make a couple stops and land in Moscow. He'd bring a film crew. He'd ask Cherelle (spouse) to come along. He'd milk up a weeks worth of drooling media coverage... make it dramatic, maybe turn the plane around empty handed saying the negotiations failed... then turn back around over the Ocean to go back again.

And since duh... Putin... Trump finally gets Griner and smiles like a Cheshire cat for the next week as the great "savior" who got her back when "no one could".

I'm just giving heads up... it'll be puke-worthy.

1. so u dont want her freed then nt

[WarGamer]

3. If Trump gets her back, A-OK. He's still an asshole but I'd be glad she's back.

9 years in a concentration camp (virtually) isn't right.

2. The kind of people who like tfg or Hannity are not those who would care one whit about

Griner. I don’t see what that would gain him.

Not to mention there are other Americans who’ve been there longer.

[WarGamer]

4. I assure you they don't care about Griner.

It's be 110% politics and PR spin.

[BlackSkimmer]

5. Well sure, I guess he'd make himself look somehow more competent (in his mind) than

the President, but a lot of wingers really don’t care for her.

But, I see what you’re saying. It’s the kind of thing that would appeal to him.

6. He was obviously ignored as a child... unloved.

He cares MORE about what others think than ANYTHING else in life.

[BlackSkimmer]

7. Yes, that is indisputably true.

What an awful way to be.

[WarGamer]

9. Hard for me to understand...

I'm an INTP-T and probably (untested) somewhere on the autism spectrum.

80% of my life occurs between my ears and I tend to block out the "real world" including what others think.

8. I think it's still illegal for private citizens to conduct foreign affairs.

10. Rodman did it... and Rodman and Trump are nearly carbon copies except for the athletic ability

12. Richardson, too.

And others.

Usually (always?) with coordination with the State Dept.

(As for the rest ... Yeah, Rodman and Trump ... Soooo similar. )

11. Pootie won't give up Griner until he gets a really good Russian prisoner in exchange

Chump is in no position to exchange any Russian prisoners that we may have. Chump doesn't represent the US government, and he's not empowered to speak for Biden or anyone else. He'd just be showboating.

13. My take on this kind of thing as not quite normal.

But it's often bartering with human flesh.

"I'll trade you X for Y." "No, Y's worth more. For *my* person I need Z." "Ok, Z and you change this regulation in exchange for Y." "Deal."

How that differs from a slave market, I'm not sure. Except that it's now and considered proper, so I guess that bartering people for people and other assets is completely different from bartering people for people and other assets.

14. I doubt Putin wants the Trump shit show in Moscow.

Putin hired Trump to cause six kinds of hell in the US.
He doesn't want it on his own turf.

And Putin has no intention of giving up his prize hostage until he is good and ready.

He is making a cruel statement and wants Americans to understand how powerful he is.

And he will not give up the hostage until he gets something of value in return or it serves his purpose in some way.

15. tfg should trade himself for Brittney...

...legal problems over and faux news would lose their clickbait.

16. Well... It's the underbelly of twitter so...
