[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I felt poorly for this family yesterday. Then I see he tried to lay this at the feet of President Obama. Take some responsibility for the fact that your adult son went to N. Korea. Screw you and your entitled family. Looks like it couldn't have happened to a more deserving bunch.  [/quote]

Sadly, yes.  And wouldn't have said this until yesterday and seeing his father and his entitlement and victim routine.  Nauseating.  Otto suffered a punishment that didn't fit the crime.  But that kid should never have been in NK in the first place.  PERIOD.[/quote]

You know, I watched his press conference.  Mr. Warmbier went out of his way NOT to outright blame the Obama administration.  But, when asked what they did to help, what do you expect him to say?  You think he should lie about the help they gave him, or didn’t give him?  They told him and his family and his community to lay low.  Don’t make waves.  Don’t upset the N Koreans.  And, while this family waited and visited DC a dozen times, the administration did nothing.  They never had a meeting with Obama.  
Obama cannot be blamed for the student being there.  But, he really didn’t do much to work at bringing him home.  [/quote]
Exactly. Obama did nothing. Trump did everything possible.[/quote]

That's the claim.  But the reality is that you don't know that Obama didn't do anything and can't say he didn't do anything.  North Korea has been a very difficult regime to deal with for longer than Obama or Trump.  And you also don't know what Trump did or didn't do and are just assuming that Trump somehow magically negotiated the kid back to the US.

The reality of it is probably more that the kid was on the verge of dying and the North Koreans returned him because of that far more than anything to do with Trump or Obama.[/quote]
