If your claims of Trump being tight with ole Putin were true wouldn't he just send back this guy.
Trump and Putin are using him to give trump a leg up
Butina is so dangerous.. but a Marine ... Santa Claus 🎅
Why do Americans go to these countries that hate us
He was vacationing in Russia? By himself? Sure, that makes sense.
Apparently, for some dudes, an American in Russia can only be a spy....
In Russia, vacation takes you. (apologies to YS)
I'm sure if he lays claims to being a MAGAt he will be released.
Swap with Butina?
This seems pretty fishy. Seems to me this is a set up to do a trade to try to get Butina back to keep her from testifying - likely an agreement set up between Putin and Trump.
If he was a spy do u think he would admit it? Really?
Ah come on, make it at least look like this was not scripted. How convenient that suddenly someone with this profile is caught in Russia. Got a feeling I watched this movie before (Lee Harvey setup). Soon a trade for Butina in the making perhaps? What a joke
Don't let that distract you from the fact that he casually referred to CNN as 'fake news' and Alisyn Camerota didn't take it personally at all
So why had realDonaldTrump not stepped in to speak to his master Putin to beg to release our citizen?
exchange this spy for law obedient Butina illegally held by US
The president got to do better than this to put pressure on the Russians president Putin this shouldn’t be happening to American citizens and all Americans needs to stand up against him to do better for American democracy citizens shouldn’t be his scapegoat in corruption scandal
Of course every spy always inform his family about all missions he participate. So if the family tells us it is just a vacation trip we should believe it.
Yeah sure only a “Vacation Trip”
Thoughts & Prayers
Most likely, a spy...
Trump/Putin scam
Nice spy vacation in gulag!
Another honorable Marine, just like Oliver North, John Kelly and Oswald.
Who “vacations” in Russia?
uk's got your back america...................
He is a court martialed former marine with questionable business history. Do better
Well there was that flash drive....
Muller prob sent him
He works for the Adriatic league of fascists.
IF it’s true he is a Trump supporter, keep him!
He will get flipped for Butina before she has a chance to spill her guts on the NRA and GOP. How convenient for Individual1
Russian bots are trolling Twitter everywhere
NO BUTINA SWAP!
Really?
Trade Mr Whelan (no collusion) with Don Jr (co-conspirator)?
This is retaliation for that Russian women both Trump and Putin act like toddlers
Lies lies lies. This is a scam to get Butina back to Russia. Trump is in on it.
He’s a Trump supporter - Russia can keep him. This whole thing smells shady.
Who vacations in Russia during the winter?
HE IS LYING! NOBODY GOES ON VACATION TO RUSSIA IN THE WINTER! HE IS A SPY! MAGA
