Does Trump and his supportors think that there are good and bad Chinies spy ballones?

When the Chinese spy balloon was first spotted in American air space Trump supporters were quick to point out that if Trump was still president he would of shot it down. And Trump was quick to post that Biden should shoot it down and if he was president that's what he would of done. Thing is there were 3 Chinese spy balloons in American air space during his term in office and he didn't order that they be shot down and his supporters didn't ask why he isn't shooting them down. So I think there is a double standard at play. Cheers!

What I found fascinating is how many people fell all over themselves to use this information to excuse the current administrations actions regarding the Chinese balloon.

I can't see how that is even remotely relevant other than a balm for left wingers to point their fingers at Trump and forget all about this.

@Carla I'm sorry what do I sometimes have?

Please just put it out there. If I am supposed to get what you are referring to, I am not.

Thank you.

@SumKindaMunster sometimes people, like the op, get to typing and forget to edit. Some are from other countries and translations get lost. Some people truly have difficulty with spelling.
Sometimes...you have that.

@Carla I'd like to think that if the issue is important to discuss with members, is it too much to ask that it be proofread before posting? A mistake here and there is fine, but when multiple spelling and grammatical errors jump out at you when you read it, it kinda makes it look like the details don't matter...in a political opinion post I would say the details matter a lot.

They forget to edit? Even after being reminded of the mistakes? Again, not a sign of someone who actually cares to discuss the issue they are posting.

Bottom line. This person is anti Trump shit poster, its not about capturing the details more so than it is to virtue signal and look for support amongst the community.

Wait...I've smelled this before...it's 🐂💩 fake news.

If there were all these Chinese spy balloons during the Trump administration, the media would not have waited to call him out as a traitor.

Thanks for playing.

@Carla I think you need to go back , a few parts are missing

Carla · 61-69, F

@TexChik not missing. Plenty busted up though.
But just the same, i don't pretend to be an attorney. Or anything else that i am not.

TexChik · F

@Carla As for your bs post...There were no Chinese spy balloons allowed over US airspace during the Trump administration. Its just like you libs to start whining that "Trump did it too" , but it is simply not true. Next lie?

black4white · 56-60, M

You do realize that the #45 supporters are going to deny him and do whatever it takes to prove you wrong and LIE of course just like the minions do.

He's saying that's disinformation, which is very ironic coming from him lol

Nanoose · 61-69, M

@deadgerbil Well maybe if he had looked at the classified documents he took after he left office he would of found a classified document or 2 about Chinese spy balloons. Cheers!

Like an addict they bring their feeble attention back to their obsessive-compulsive reflex towards Trump who is their de facto Evil God. They need it to support their Victim narrative in the Oppression Olympics.

I just saw this article this morning.

[quote](CNN)The transiting of three suspected Chinese spy balloons over the continental US during the Trump administration was only discovered after President Joe Biden took office, a senior administration official told CNN on Sunday.[/quote]

1. We do not know for sure that there were 3 during Trumps term as it is Bidens' people telling us that.
2. It is possible that those 3 balloons, as well as the one we shot down recently, truly were weather/climate research balloons. Again, we may never know since our gov't only tells us what they want us to know.
3. There has always been a double standard between democrats and republicans and that is something that will never change.

Actually, it was a military official and a DoD official at the original briefing; not Biden appointees or Biden hires. And since that briefing, an Air Force report from April of last year has come out:

[quote]The April 2022 report, titled “People’s Republic of China High-Altitude Balloon,” found a Chinese spy balloon “circumnavigated the globe” in 2019 – while Donald Trump was president – at an altitude of roughly 65,000 feet, and “drifted past Hawaii and across Florida before continuing its journey,” the US Air Force document states. [/quote]

Additionally, Gen. Glen VanHerck, head of North American Aerospace Defense Command, has been spinning desperately, trying to explain why the Trump admin didn't report the balloon.

Today's Republicans proudly repeat the insidious garbage they're taught. They want to emulate their mouthy fool leaders. We must better educate future generations if this trend is to be reversed.

BackyardShaman · 61-69, M

Since we are in a civil war with him and his supporters, we should do target practice. I’m of the opinion that we are in a civil war conflict now since GOP domestic terrorists have taken over control of the House of Representatives. Hopefully Tuesday night’s state of the union address address will spell this out and McCarthy, Jordan, MTG, Boebert and the others will be taken into custody, dead or alive preferably dead, to get the point across.

Nanoose · 61-69, M

@BackyardShaman I like watching the state of the union address so thanks for pointing out that there will be one Tuesday. Cheers!

BackyardShaman · 61-69, M

@Nanoose it might not be my fantasy SOU address but still interesting 🤔

They don't care about reality. It's since come out that Trump was doing secret business with China and his cucks don't care.

The republicans aren't just the party on no they are the party of anti-democrates. If a democrat does it they hate it. If a republican does the same thing they love it. It is very much a double standard
