I could dunk 100 times better than Griner when I was her age and would have destroyed her on the court at the same age.
Anyway, nice satire. She became a political pawn that Russia used to their advantage and more nations will do the same when they see what they can trade for Americans that are the right symbol to grab and hold for ransom.
There are corrupt governments now on the lookout for American entertainers, so they can get obscenely good trades, from a weak, president eager to score political points and virtue signal. All you straight white men are lucky, cuz they sure as hell will not be looking for you.
Sure it's slightly humorous. But I feel sorry for her being harassed like this. She was going to do a horribly inappropriate prison term, and it was Biden who traded the merchant of death, not her.
Take your anger out on Biden, not her.
Inappropriate prison time? Good thing she didn’t go to Iran or the Philippines. She couldn’t go two days with drugs….two days….
I know why she was arrested, she was a dumb ass who smuggled in a banned drug. Still, the prison sentence by US standards was horribly inappropriate.
"Still, the prison sentence by US standards was horribly inappropriate.""
You just don't get it.
This is Russia NOT America! Of course they are as different as night and day.
Do you believe all the players were NOT warned?
If the tables were turned and the Marine was freed, the left and the left media, I repeat myself, would be screaming about the president being "sexist and racist"!
I have not really paid attention to Griner, and know next to nothing about her. Even if she has made statements disrespectful of the US which i would take issue with, she had nothing to do with this swap, it's all on Biden, and so will be any new deaths that result from releasing the merchant of death.
I think Biden was scoring political points here, and he deserves the same criticism as a governor or DA who released a mass murderer for political points. When that murderer kills again, Biden will have blood on his hands. Griner will prob be vilified on social media for those deaths too, even though she had nothing to do with his release.
Exactly. When you can be guaranteed 90% of the black vote, you reward your constituents when you can.

See this for what it is:
This was a brilliant (and evil) move by Putin.
More fighting in the US over politics AND he gets his arms dealer back.
