Some are calling for POTUS* to actually do something about the possible murder of Jamal Khashoggi rather than divert attention over Turkey’s release of Andrew Brunson’s with a reduced sentence of time served in prison.
It may be a Bill Shiney object for the Trump base, in terms of religious persecution in the wake of the coup attempt. Other Americans remain in Turkish custody.
More interesting will be whether the US State department discusses these matters today or whether it will be relegated to Trumpian tweets and a return to US soil featuring stunt-POTUS* commenting on TV ratings as he did with the Koreans.
More interesting for #TrumpRussia would be whether the release was also associated with an attempt to swap Brunson for Fethullah Gulen, another rendition that Michael Flynn may have been organizing for the Turks.
