    Default China an drone....

    China seizes US drone early this week....
    Obama files objection....
    US gets no answer...
    Donald tweets this morning that "China steals United States Navy research drone in international waters - rips it out of water and takes it to China in unprecedented act."....
    China announces a few hours later that Chinese authorities had decided to return it, but criticized the US for having "hyped up" the issue......

    obviously Donald had no influence on their decision......just sayin'.......

    Let's see if past history has any correlation with this:

    1 - Jan. 20, 1981 | Iran Releases American Hostages as Reagan Takes Office

    2 - US says China will return underwater drone; Trump slams Beijing over incident

    3 -

    You mean "unpresidented" attack.

    trump just insulted China with that phone call to Taiwan's president. Only a dummy thinks China would do nothing in return.

    Was thinking the same thing. China respects the Pres-Elect. Not the current woose in chief.
    Keep changing the names. It doesn't change the meaning.

    They're only making this harder on themselves. He can use their antics as pretexts to take actions that he wanted to all along. Best historical example is when the French crown seized vast English holdings as "punishment" for a social offense that King John committed. This is what led to Magna Carta and centuries of mythology about him being a villain.

    The phone call was to Trump, stop lying.

    Interesting how quickly they said they would give it back after his tweet though.

    That doesn't to make a difference now (to some ppl) does it...
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia and Brunei feel pretty insulted by the way the Chinese are militarising the Spratly and Paracel islands.

    This is hilarious.

    China isn't afraid of the tweeting clown.

    Believe me.

    He thinks he is going to bluster, bully & bull shit his way, like he did to win the electoral college..

    Not to worry though, unlike winning this or that state, the nom, the presiduncy etc etc etc, once he is actually ruling he will "act" presidential...
