You really can’t get behind that?
Just try to be a human for a second and think about what her family has gone through.

I'm actually OK with this trade myself. I'm surprised how OK I am with it to be honest. She made a stupid decision, but an absolutely unharmful one.
But this isn't "politics" like we're arguing the top marginal tax rate or something.
Russia is an enemy of the world right now and the guy that got released is an evil motherfucker. How many thousands of families has this guy ruined? How many thousands are devastated by this trade?
What you're asking for is a complete over-simplification of the issue. I think it's definitely a reasonable position to not be OK with this.
