So not completely abandoned but they certainly didn’t build on the premise, which is a shame because I thought it was one of the cooler plot elements that was introduced in the series.
Releasing someone who made an extremely successful drug distribution ring while also threatening tariffs under the guise of a fentanyl crackdown.
Predictable behavior from someone who’s only consistent action is his golf schedule.
