The fact that Ed Snowden didn't feel safe going anywhere but Russia and China suggests the US government could get Assange if it really wanted him.

Trump is going to be disappointed when he finds out that missiles aren't an option

We cant.
It's probably just a formality, so that if he does leave the embassy he is hiding at (or is caught trying to sneak out), then we (the USA) will also have claim for him to be extradited to face crimes here in the United States.

And just think, we could have elected Hillary instead, who didn't want to charge him. She merely wanted to assassinate him.

We can always send him to Guantanamo Bay for years, and years, and years.
All those prisoners who are/were there, were not "a US citizen or even been to the United States" either.

Yeah but the public might be upset if you put a white guy in Guantanamo.

He was originally headed to Ecuador. He got stuck in Moscow, mid-transit, the exact details of why vary.

It's time for BRTD to buy a bright red MAGA hat if true. I guess his "king" really is alive.

Uh Trump is still scum. He's pulling this: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness

The question is, why should I feel the slightest inkling of sympathy for Assange? Do you seriously think hes not an egomaniac rapist scumbag?

Honestly, what did they see in him that was worth so much investment?

Would it really have hurt to wait 4-8 more years for a more competent torch bearer? Now history books will forever mark them with the scarlet T.

So Trump is a sociopath who couldn't care less about that idiot. SHOCKER. Trump had no problem backstabbing Flynn and likely Bannon now.

Not really surprising: Assange helped him get elected, but now is no longer of use to him and thus can be discarded.
