In the wake of the 21st century’s most dreadful and diabolical act of international espionage – the Chinese Spy Balloon Affair – Donald Trump is displaying his famously fatuous and defiant demeanor. Always the measured stateman, Trump’s response to China’s brief and inconsequential incursion into American air space is typically distant from any rational version of reality.<\/p>\n

Trump’s first public comment on this pressing matter was a posting on his pitifully failing social media site, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, that said<\/a> nothing but \u201cSHOOT DOWN THE BALLOON!\u201d<\/em> Which was particularly asinine advice considering that he and his mouthpieces on Fox News believed that it might contain bioweapons that would spread for miles were the balloon to be shot down over the U.S.<\/p>\n

On Sunday Trump elaborated on his thoughts regarding the giant Chinese party favor. He posted a comment that refuted the documented reports by the Pentagon about the state of the military Spy Balloon gap. Trump babbled<\/a> that…<\/p>\n

“The Chinese Balloon situation is a disgrace, just like the Afghanistan horror show, and everything else surrounding the grossly incompetent Biden Administration. They are only good at cheating in elections, and disinformation \u2014 and now they are putting out that a Balloon was put up by China during the Trump Administration, in order to take the ‘heat’ off the slow moving Biden fools. China had too much respect for ‘TRUMP’ for this to have happened, and it NEVER did. JUST FAKE DISINFORMATION!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

First of all, wouldn’t “FAKE DISINFORMATION”<\/em> be real information? Setting that aside, Trump’s tedious tantrums about President Biden and the Democrats are always describing one “disgrace”<\/em> or another. In this case, Trump is adamant that nothing like this ever occurred during his tumultuous term in the White House. Unfortunately for Trump, the Pentagon disagrees. They issued a statement<\/a><\/strong> on Thursday that revealed that…<\/p>\n

“It is not the first time that you had a balloon of this nature cross over the continental United States. It has happened a handful of other times over the past few years, to include before this administration.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Not only that, Fox News reported the same thing with additional details, saying that…<\/p>\n

“U.S. officials tell Fox it’s not the first time Chinese spy balloons have flown over the United States. About four months ago a Chinese spy balloon crashed in the Pacific near Hawaii. Others were spotted over Texas and Florida, dating back to the Trump administration, but never previously acknowledged publicly.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
