Putin is Playing Trump Like a Fiddle

Trump’s Negotiation Game is a One-Way Giveaway

Teacher Marc Fogel was released last Tuesday. Now, Russia has released another American prisoner, Kalob Byers.

It makes for great MAGA TV, doesn’t it?

Donald Trump, the great, brought two Americans suffering in Russian prisons back home. Only Trump, the great, can achieve the monumental feat of bringing one American prisoner from Russia every week—one just before Russian and U.S. officials met in Saudi Arabia and another on the exact day they were scheduled to meet.

Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov, who was part of the Russian delegation in Saudi Arabia, told reporters, "The main thing is to begin a real normalization of relations between us and Washington."

Wait… What?
