According to the propaganda Press, President Joe Biden “destroyed” Trump with a “mic drop moment” during a press conference on Thursday regarding the historic prisoner swap. The issue is that Biden didn’t “destroy” or “diss” Trump at all; he just further exemplified his cognitive decline on a national stage.
This week, three Americans and one U.S. green card holder, who were arrested and held in Russia, were released in a massive prisoner swap involving a total of 26 people and seven countries. However, the terms of the deal are largely unknown, which is why Trump demanded answers on Truth Social Thursday. “So when are they going to release the details of the prisoner swap with Russia,” asked the former president. “Just curious because we never make good deals, at anything, but especially hostage swaps.”
Following up on Trump’s post, a reporter asked Biden during a White House press conference, “President Trump has said repeatedly that he could’ve gotten the hostages out without giving anything in exchange. What do you say to that?”
Smiling, Biden responded, “Why didn’t he do it when he was president,” before giving the reporters a thumbs up and walking off the stage.
The answer is that Trump didn’t have to. The U.S. green card holder and two of the American citizens imprisoned in Russia were arrested under the Biden Administration.
As The Federalist’s John Daniel Davidson writes, “This wasn't a "mic drop" moment[…] it was a Biden dementia moment.”
Two of the three American prisoners were arrested by Russia during BIDEN's term, not Trump's.

This wasn't a "mic drop" moment, as CNN's grinning Dana Bash says, it was a Biden dementia moment.
And CNN would have said so if it were something other than Pravda for the Democrats. https://t.co/r405SENilN
