Donald Trump sent a brutal message to Brittney Griner

In late 2022, WNBA superstar Brittney Griner was finally released after nearly 10 months in Russian custody where she was imprisoned after authorities found a small amount of prescription cannabis oil in her luggage. The United States returned her to their country through a prisoner swap that returned Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout to Russia, and Donald Trump is clearly still angry about it.

During an interview with YouTuber Logan Paul on his podcast “Impaulsive,” Donald Trump was asked about the prisoner swap that freed Brittney Griner and he didn’t hold back his criticism of the move, saying it was “not the greatest swap” as he blasted Brittney Griner for refusing to stand for the national anthem.

Trump called Bout a “big arms dealer” and complained that he was traded for “the basketball player who wouldn’t stand for the national anthem.” She thought it was a good time to tie her sneakers. And it wasn’t exactly the biggest business. But he also gave $6 billion. Six billion, billion with a B, and they don’t know what they’re doing.

Even years later, Trump was clearly not happy with this exchange.
