@uspolitics Whelen was a dishonorably discharged Marine who was convicted of Larceny. Is it possible neither Trump nor Putin wanted Whelen released until he gives up the key to where he helped them stash their loot. I can envision a scenario where T&P got W to help them move weapons sideways but W got greedy. That's why P wanted Bout released to get his hands on more secret weapons stashed by T.
