“The basketball players, by the
way — I know a lot of people are asking — I will tell you, when I heard
about it two days ago, I had a great conversation with President Xi,”
Trump told reporters on Air Force One as he returned from Asia. “What
they did was unfortunate. You know, you’re talking about very long
prison sentences. [The Chinese] do not play games.
“[Xi] was terrific, and they’re working on it right
now,” Trump continued. “And hopefully everything is going to work out.
And I know they’re very grateful because they were told exactly what
happened. But it’s a very, very rough situation with what happened to
them.”Trump still sounds dumb, but when I was a kid and did something stupid (nothing like stealing, I threw a bottle at some guy just walking around in the back of my folks' restaurant and the guy snitches us out), this sounded like my Pop telling my Mom we weren't terrible kids. Chinese people don't negotiate. Trust me, when I went to these vintage camera shows I would dodge the mainlanders, because they are ruthless.
I give Trump a ton of credit for laying out his view on it to the Chinese (incahoots to sell America or not). To three American representatives who basically showed the world Blacks are thieving animals and can't help themselves. Personally, I would've backhanded these guys and made them rot in prison. But apparently Trump has a soft spot for potential basketball stars (like they'll cure cancer). But, it's this type of temperate behavior that will get Trump back in the good graces of the ballers again. Almost like he slipped his programming and remembered he was a Democrat at one point in his life.
They are free now and returning to Los Angeles, where his brother Lorenzo Ball can continue to steal from the inner city by selling overpriced shoes.
