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!

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.

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.
