Which of those claims is false? Which ones are overblown?

Remember: it's still the first month. All this shit has happened in one month. They have broken government in one month. You think it's all fun and games. Good for you, I guess. I like having advanced scientific research in this country and apparently that's where we differ, because they are very clearly going after the universities.

A win for Trump would have been to kidnap a Russian in the US, charge them with fake offenses and then trade that schmuck for Fogle. As it is he gave up a known criminal and Putin stooge for a single innocent man.

No dude. Its a trump win for sure. Just ask him and his family. Its a great thing both political parties should embrace. Biden didn't get him released. Way more than enough to argue about. Just nod your head and say good job donald.

I don't know anything about the Russian that we gave up, but there certainly could be a scenario where we gave up too much to get him back. You would have to look at the particulars of the swap.

It's not a clear-cut win, in the same way that it might have not been a clear-cut win for Biden to get Griner and the other Americans released from Russia. You would have to look at who we gave up.

It is probably a win for both Presidents, but it is not as straightforward as your are suggesting.

Remember the whole Brittney Griner thing? As I recall, conservative pundits were pretty up in arms about that deal, claiming it was a win for Putin and made America look bad.

Fact Check: Did Trump say Brittney Griner should be in Russian prison?

Biden-Harris HQ suggests Donald Trump believes WNBA star Brittney Griner should still be in a Russian prison.

"I turned down a deal with Russia for a one-on-one swap of the so-called Merchant of Death for Paul Whelan," Trump said. "I wouldn't have made the deal for a hundred people in exchange for someone that has killed untold numbers of people with his arms deals. I would have gotten Paul out, however, just as I did with a record number of other hostages.
