I had the same thought, this is so peak lib.
You’re there with the guy, and you have a court ruling saying facilitate his return. Do that, by cuffing him to yourself, and demanding they let you both walk away. El Salvador don’t want heat from abducting a US statesman.
But no, this is just a photo op it seems.
I do appreciate the idea of the handcuff thing, but they'd just cut it off or pick the lock.
Even if they don't abduct him, they'd probably be more willing to rough him up.

God, anyone, please send some meteors to Twitter data centers. And Facebook while you’re at it…
