If Assange hadn't run he would have served some six years of a relatively comfortably prison sentence
by now. Or he would be free. He instead picked a different cell, in a foreign country, to spend that time in.
Guessing eventually he will be back in America. And Trump will take ALL
the credit for getting him there in an effort to boost his reelection chances.
It will most likely be a case of - lol - "i Donny dunna love you, anymore!"
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
