  1. He did consider it. But as reported in Russian news, the Russians said "You can trade for either Griner or Whelan, but not both". Biden chose Griner, because she's a black, gay, woman. Biden chose the less worthy person for stupid reasons.

  2.  @jbag7932  Griner broke the law, while Whelan didn't.

  3.  @dfattyadams123  No. The Russians told Biden it was either Griner or Whelan, but not both. And because Biden is as effective as a house plant, he didn't pressure them any further.

  4.  @dfattyadams123  The Russian negotiators gave Biden a choice. They told him that he could have Griner or Whelan, but not both. What's newsworthy is that Biden is lying.

  5. People don't get "decades or life" for small quantities. The federal sentencing is 5-40 years for trafficking greater than 100 kilos

  6.  Stacy Houston  A strong president wouldn't help you. Trump would have considered the arms dealer more important to keep than getting her out. Many other countries would lock you up also.

  7. It was a overly severe sentence. But Griner was legally convicted. Many other countries are at least as severe with importing drugs. Try bring hash into an Arab country or Singapore.
