In a tweet on January 26th 2017 President Donald Trump implied that Chelsea Manning has already been released from prison (and calls her a traitor).
Ungrateful TRAITOR Chelsea Manning, who should never have been released from prison, is now calling President Obama a weak leader. Terrible!
-- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 26, 2017
However when Manning's sentence was commuted by President Obama it was for all but four of the remaining months of her prison sentence. This means the release date is set for May 17th 2017 and not, as President Trump implies, already in the past.
However, we could be wrong. Just to be sure we polled our readers to find out what they thought:
