John Kelly, Chinese officials caused commotion over nuclear football in Beijing, report says

According to Axios, five sources said that on Nov 9, 2017, during Trump’s visit to Beijing’s Great Hall of the People, Chief of Staff John Kelly and a U.S. Secret Service agent had a “skirmish” with Chinese security officials over the so-called nuclear “football,” which helps set a nuclear strike order in motion.

When the U.S. military aide carrying the football entered the Great Hall, Axios reported, Chinese security officials blocked his entry.

Kelly, in the adjoining room, was told, and the former United States Marine Corps general rushed over and told U.S. officials to keep walking, according to Axios.

“We’re moving in,” Kelly said — and his team all started moving.

A Chinese security official then grabbed Kelly, and Kelly shoved the man’s hand off of his body, according to Axios. Then a U.S. Secret Service agent grabbed that Chinese security official, and tackled him to the ground.

Libs are running around saying the Chinese government tests the gumption of American presidents by attempting to separate the chief of staff and the nuclear football then watching how he reacts? Can you quote some liberals saying anything like that?

What would you have done Al? Let the Chinese run off with it and put it somewhere for safe keeping? The Chinese are not stupid. They were just testing how far they could push.

.......President-elect Donald Trump says the Chinese government should be told “we don't want the drone they stole back” and “let them keep it!”

Trump's tweet Saturday evening came after U.S. officials confirmed that they “secured an understanding” for the return of the U.S. Navy unmanned underwater glider, which China seized in the South China Sea.......

Trump tells China: Go ahead, keep that U.S. military drone you seized

You've shown no examples of liberals inventing tests by the Chinese to check the president's manhood. I stand by my statement that it's an idiotic statement.


No secret service agent under ANY president will hand the nuclear football to the Chinese. Your assertion that Obama would've handed it over is partisan hackery at its worst and in 8 years of Obama's presidency you can't point to one example where this was allowed.
