Biden chose to free Griner rather than a Marine to get votes

President Biden has a new best-friend. Her name is Brittney Griner. We all know who she is. She is the athlete who refused to come out of the locker room for the national anthem.

Biden could never have been a former Marine. Marines don’t leave people like Paul Whelan behind. Perhaps he should have told Russia, “all or nothing.”

But why didn’t he? Because he knew Griner was more valuable to him, in the form of future votes from gays and people of color. He will receive millions more votes because of who she is. His decisions are made on what will give him the most votes. He does this with all of his decisions.

Biden said, “I felt I had a moral obligation to bring her home.” Well, I guess he doesn’t feel the same obligation towards a person who served our county. A good intent may not equal a good result.

Should Biden have been given the choice, as to which person to be coming home, he would pick Griner. Again, she would provide more votes for him, from minorites. She was more important to him, then this U.S. Marine?
