Simplest answer is to use isinstance to see if it is a string, list,
or tuple:

if isinstance(variable, (str, list, tuple)):
.
.
.

Now the problem is that this answer doesn't address the problem.
Your code is attempting to do something to the wrong type of
object/variable which is a logic problem.
