American pastor Andrew Brunson has been held captive in Turkey for nearly two years, and the Trump administration has been working to secure his release, but Turkish President Erdogan so far hasn’t given in. Check out how the Washington Post framed it:

What is wrong the strong arming a dictator to release a pastor?

Do you idiots at the @washingtonpost know how transparently stupid you appear? Do you think Americans cannot see who you are rooting for? https://t.co/IfLJuMzqIy
