It deosn't matter what I think.
The fact is Obama admin told Ottos family to stay quiet and they would take care of it. The fact is Ottos dad said they barely talked to him, and didn't seem to do much. The fact is he said the Trump people encouraged him to speak, and kept in contact with him, and he feels they did everything they could to get his kid back.
I know he was grieving and that could alter his perception, but do you have any reason to doubt his claims?
Enough of a reason to criticize Trump like you are in this thread?

Can you please cite a source confirming that Otto Warmbier denied taking the poster?
Warmbier was tried and convicted for the theft of the propaganda banner from a restricted area of the hotel. His trial included his confession, CCTV footage, fingerprint evidence, and witness testimony.
en.wikipedia.org...
WARMBIER: North Korea has proven they are not nature's noble men. Again, do you believe my son needed a used car? Do you believe -- he's not even a member of the church that he was accused of stealing a banner from. So, again, I don't really -- we are not burdened with whatever North Korea says or does any longer, the Warmbier family is not.
Local attorney David Benowitz called the charges bogus.
“This is a dictatorship using someone, a student, I`m sure, nothing to do with anything illegal as a political pawn,” Benowitz explained. “This is what north Korea does. They kidnap students.'

Yah, I will.
Sorry, but all your political threads show the truth:
You're a bottom feeder.
You do this with ever tragedy you can get your hands on and try to make political points over it.
Yellow journalism at it's finest.
Well, at least you put it in the right forum....where all other muckrakers belong.....

This is what every president does. They say they would have done things better.
I dont know if Trump would have had more success.
I know that Ottos dad feels that way. I know that man personally dealt with both administrations, and he felt even before he got his son back that Trumps was doing more.
True. Their son could have died had they not taken Obamas advice. Oh wait...

If Trump blamed Obama, then Trump had better launch a rescue mission for the 3 remaining Americans ASAP..or he'll be labeled a hypocrite in short order.

But classy of you to blame this kid for his own death!
So just who else is responsible? If the idiot hadn't committed the crime then he wouldn't have gotten locked up. It's funny how you people scream personal responsibility until it's time for a person to be held responsible then it's somebody elses fault.
