Some might not like this because of his drug related offense but this kind of thing is why Trump’s approval ratings are sky high

Trump has built of coalition of voters across the political spectrum.

You simply cannot win elections with hardcore MAGA Conservatives.

Fogel is free as a bird.

His name means "bird" (German Vogel, with the V pronounced like F).

Apart from the Gaza policy (depending on how you feel about that) Trump has not put a foot wrong. Long may it continue!

With Gaza, we can NEVER have a two state solution, they already have a two state solution, and it results in thousands of dead Jews..Palestinians dont want to live among Jews they want all Jews dead..that is their policy they are all Hamas. You had people who lived in those Kibbutz’s who would take those same Palestinians to doctors appts, and what happened, on Oct 7th, those same Palestinians came into those kibbutz’s to kill Jews thats gratitude

I am surprised a liberal judge hasn’t ordered Trump to return this prisoner to Russia!

No, we gave up Alexander Vinnik. He might have been a scammer and possibly a hacker, but isn't a murderer or international arms dealer. If Fogel had been a black lesbian WNBA player, he could have been released in 2022.

I hope Mr. Fogel (formerly a pot smoking teacher) is re-thinking his political views and especially DEI, having been shown where he stands in the leftist Intersectionality Scorecard.
