Trump Calls Prisoner Swap “A Win For Putin” [VIDEO]

“Well, as usual, it was a win for Putin or any other country that deals with us. It wouldn’t have happened with us. We would have gotten it back. We wouldn’t have had to pay anything.

“We wouldn’t have had to let some of the great killers of the world go, because that’s what’s happened, as you know. And the deal is very complex because it just came out.

“So nobody understands the deal yet. And they make it complex. So you can’t understand how bad the deal is for us. But we got him back and we could have had him back.

“We should have had him back a long time ago. “It should have never happened. It would have never happened. He shouldn’t have been taken in the first place.

“And it would have never happened with us if I was president.” – Trump, who made no apparent effort for the release of Paul Whelan, this morning on Fox News.
