realDonaldTrump I’m surprised trumpf hasn’t pardoned assange

realDonaldTrump Why is it that as soon as someone commits a crime in another country, people automatically defend them? This is like that case where the British woman smuggled drugs into Egypt, then begged the foreign office to get her out. If you commit a crime abroad deal with the consequences

realDonaldTrump I have a feeling there are certain Swedes who have to such problem getting out of jail

realDonaldTrump I’m not sure that personally vouching for his bail counts for much when it comes from a guy with a long history of not paying his bills.

realDonaldTrump Let justice prevail, no one is above the law

realDonaldTrump Swedish system has no bail - so guilty until proven innocent !

realDonaldTrump So he's more concerned with letting out a millionaire in Sweden than he is than letting innocent kids out of his own detainment centres? Cool. Nice to see he's got his priorities straight.

realDonaldTrump A$AP Who Never heard of her!

realDonaldTrump Is this a black man, that the racist Trump is trying to get released. How strange of the racist 😂😂
