r/conservitive's response: It never happened. How could they know that the balloons were undetected if they didn't detect them? Oh it must be bliss...
it's like that song...99 Red Balloons
sounds like it coulda been that many  /s >

Heard that his General didn't tell him about them. >

Jim Mattis said he had no knowledge of them! Who’s telling the truth???? >

what a great attempt to try and cover for Trump. Originally the story was that (what was it?) 3 flew over the US during Trump's presidency. Now some officials are saying they went undetected.
So they are saying that its not a story of Trump not telling the public, it's a case they had no idea... i'm not sure which is actually worse? Either he hid it, or had no idea... >

Based on what I read. I don't think the DoD withheld the info from Trump admin for nefarious reasons. They track hundreds of balloons everyday and are typically not threats. Unless their presence was out of the ordinary (like this past week) then it would be brought to Presidents attention.
