wondering if some of those top secret docs from trump missing have anything to do with the path it took
It doesn’t matter what Biden does. They’re going to criticize him no matter what >

I agree, and even though I don't like Trump, that's the same thing Democrats did when he was in office. >

The democrats criticized trump because trump kept doing things that broke laws or at the very least, tradition/good faith agreements. They aren't saying "water is wet" and then when trump says "water is wet" going "well we think water is dry".
They arent CHANGING their stances to disagree with Trump, which is key, since that's the difference between criticism and dishonesty. >

The tribalism is not helping America. It's only dividing us further. Democrats complained about everything Trump did (rightfully or not), and now they seem to be upset when Republicans complain about everything Biden does. 
It's just turned into us vs them. I vote for many Democrats but I still hate the tribalism. It's the kind of stuff that makes people believe both sides are the same. >

Democrats complaining about the terrible policy decisions of Trump vs. Republicans complaining that Biden didn't drop something the size of 3 busses over a populated area... yeah that's the same thing.
Give the "both sides" BS a rest. >

You don't have to agree with Trump's policies but it's all a matter of perspective. Some people say all of Biden's policy decisions are terrible. 
Aside from the issue of Trump being a horrible human, I'd still bet a lot of his policies are things he (and his voters) thought were good for the country.
I wouldn't say both sides are the same, but they are similar in many ways. >

Republicans, lets be real here, daddy Trump let three of these things fly over the US and he didnt even blink in their general direction. Yet somehow he is some peerless saint who can do no wrong and Biden is the dumbass since this incident went on so long during his term. Grow the fuck up.
This democracy is fucked. We're more concerned about party loyalty than we are working together to advance this country. Its fucking embarrassing. >

All Republicans agree on is that they want to hurt people. >

Everything they do is in bad faith.
If we'd shot it down over the Pacific, they'd have complained it was provocative.
If we'd shot it down over CONUS, they'd have complained it was reckless.
Once we shot it down over the Atlantic, they're complaining it was untimely.
There is no pleasing them, because what they care about is weaponizing anything and everything "to own the libs." They don't care about what's best for national security, the general public, public safety, international relations, or anything else. They care about what's best for them, Republicans, and what's best for them is contrarianism and grievance-mongering. >

Was anyone legitimately expecting praise? For Biden? From Republicans? We know that's not gonna happen... >

Guarantee if he shot it down right away they'd piss and moan on how he should have waited to shoot it down. >

They'd be telling us how Biden had unnecessarily antagonized the Chinese and possibly provoked a war over a false alarm. >

Which is exactly what they're doing right now, not kidding. >

Just noise, they think a gun could shoot it down and can't comprehend that they were listening to it's signals to figure out its task. Beat it up, shoot it, gerrymander it, slander it, this is the Republican way. >

We were jamming it the entire time it was over the US, and we recovered its payload. Our tech guys are gonna have a field day with that. >

Yep, Let the professionals do their job. >

Given how virulently anti-porn the CCP is, I think it would have been hilarious if we jammed it with a livestream to a camgirl site. >

I just don’t care what these fucking delusional people think at this point.  If he had shot it down over land, they’d shamelessly criticize him for putting American lives at risk.  They would attack no matter what he did >

Exactly...lol >

Might as well criticize military while they are at it.  Biden wanted to shoot it down on Wednesday but his military advisors advised him to wait. >

He gave the order Wednesday, but to do it when safe to do so. >

Hypothetical scenario: Biden shoots it down much earlier, falling debris damages someone's barn in the middle of nowhere.
Result: Republicans criticize Biden of shooting it down over land putting American lives at risk.
You can't really win with these morons. >

Crash it before it gets to Alaska? “Why would Biden let Russia get to it first?” 
Crash it down over remote Alaska? “Why would he let it crash in inaccessible wilderness? We’ll never recover it!” 
Crash it over Canada? “Blatant overreach! Not even on US soil!” 
Crash it over the continental US? “What if it took out a house / school / hospital? Destroyed a power line? Blocked a highway?” (Plus anything recoverable would be on eBay before the government could collect it). 
Crash it over the Atlantic Ocean where there’s zero risk of property damage / injury, and it’s more easily recoverable? “Why did he wait so long? Our guy would’ve dealt with it sooner!” (Meanwhile “their guy” let 3 of these things fly over without a peep). >

Gaslight. Obstruct. Project. >

I’m really trying to get this part added but hasn’t taken off yet haha
Gaslight. Obstruct. Project. And close the coup. >

Wait, are these the same Republicans that said that Trump would have shot it down immediately?? >

Trump ignored 3 balloons, republicans hate America >

Republicans criticize anyone not republican, and also other republicans.
One of the many reasons why I take all republican arguments as ones of bad faith until proven otherwise. >

ditto
​
not sorry >

One flew over Texas and Florida under Trump administration. They didn’t shoot it down so where was their outrage then? >

Their side was in charge, so no manufactured outrage was needed. >

American manufacturing boom.  Just what the Public-can’ts wanted. >

While now preparing to defend Trump for just ignoring them. >

Republicans hate military advice now >

Republicans would criticize Biden if he solved the border problem, ended world hunger and balanced the budget. >

He followed the recommendation of the Pentagon. Are they saying the Pentagon was wrong? >

I'll make it easy for Reuters and just prep every headline they'll need for the next 2 years.

Republicans criticize Biden

Done. >

Now we just need one if those big, red 'Easy' buttons from Staples that says, "That was easy!" >

They had zero problem with the three chinese ballons Trump let float over America while he was driving, so fuck these hypocrites. >

They wouldn't be happy if he left it, either.  They're not interested in any objective betterment of process, it's all about owning the libs. >

We really missed the boat by not using the headline “Old white men yell at clouds” >

Of course, because it's always bad faith with the Right.
If Biden had immediately shot it down they would've shrieked that he was a warmonger trying to start WW3.
There is nothing honest about the Right. They will always engage in bad faith at all times, no matter how much you try to accommodate them >

Clowns gonna clown. >

Republicans need to get a job that actually contributes to American society >

Three times China sent balloons over us while Trump was president and he didn't shoot down a single balloon. They have probably sent many balloons over us. Apparently it's only bad if we can see it with our eyes from the ground, somehow. It's manufactured outrage. >

That tweet is whatever and not a source to refer to. >

Of course. Because we should tell the Chinese exactly how we’ve exploited their surveillance attempt. >

Republicans criticize Biden for <*insert headline here*> >

I couldn’t careless what republicans think about anything. >

Why aren’t they criticizing China for floating the balloon in the first place? >

trumps financial concerns told them otherwise >

They are so predictable…. >

Well, OF COURSE they did. >

Republicans criticize Biden for ___. >

An efficiency expert would just simplify the work and make all future headlines just “Republicans criticize Biden”. >

They would condemn and criticize any decision Biden made on this. >

I thought I read somewhere that three of these flew over the USA while Trump was in office.  Am I  wrong? >

According to recent reports this is true. Trump allegedly either ignored the balloons entirely or was never informed. >

The fact that this is a national story is a testament to how awesome the Biden years are.  Boring af. Just how it should be. >

Biden could’ve gotten it shot down as soon as it got to Alaska, went on tv and told China to suck his big dick and republicans would still talk shit about him. >

Monday: Republicans criticize Biden for not putting his coffee cup in the dishwasher. 
Wednesday: Republicans criticize Biden for not running the mostly full dishwasher after putting coffee cup in it. 
Friday:  Republicans slam Biden for ‘environmental hypocrisy’ as he wastes tax payer dollars on running big government dishwashers that are only half full of dishes.
GOP don’t care… they don’t have solutions, they’re not interested in good governance, they whine and criticize and then fuck it all up completely when they’re in charge and lie about it the whole time. >

Let's remember something... republicans, by their very nature, do not care about the lives, safety or care of others at all. Their fist instinct was to run outside and shoot hand guns at a balloon that was astronomically higher than their bullets could even reach. Blindly and totally forgetting that bullets do fall back to earth... They posed for social media, held up guns proudly and basically were hoping to get clicks and likes off of this.
Right wingers have never cared about helping you. It's all about themselves. Pure narcissism. >

I didn't see them shooting it down either. >

Gas is expensive - “Biden is ruining the economy”
Gas prices go down - “Biden is ruining the economy”
It legitimately doesn’t matter what Biden does, the GOP is going to complain. >

figures gop would keep complaining >

If he shot it down over Alaska, then they would be complaining that it would trigger a war with China.  If he shot it down over the mainland, they would be complaining about endangering lives.  Biden is damned no matter what he does.  Shooting it down over the water was the best course of action.  Perhaps it could have been shot down over Alaska, but it may not have been feasible if you want to recover it. >

I seen plenty of republicans post videos and images of their guns and how they will shoot it down themselves since Biden’s too much of a pussy. Now that he and the American government are responsible for shooting it down it should have been left alone. >

I’m still waiting to see the Trump administration shoot down the two when trump was head poobah. >

Clearly he was too busy giving us all that great infrastructure and working in his perfect healthcare plan. >

And seeing to his wall. >

But was it to be a Great Wall like the one in China? Or just an acceptable wall? >

It was the wall to save America. Criminals and gangsters. Herbs of the Gods. >

Little Marco was hilariously stupid with his attack of Biden. >

There is a balance of does it have its own deaddrop payload? What is it gathering? What type of communication does it have.
Also republicans are also blind to the fact there were three balloons during trump era and we have heard nothing of those >

If he had shot it down right away, republicans would have called him trigger-happy and unstable. >

And if he had it destroyed immediately they would have criticized that too. >

GOP are killing themselves. No leadership, no vision, no future in American politics. >

If he had not shot down the balloon they'd be threatening to investigate him over cowardice and weak leadership.  This has been the GOP looking for a crime to accuse him of, rather than bringing up his poorer decisions, ever since he took office. >

They wanted him to shoot it down over the US so if the debris fell on a town or someone's house they could blame him for that. >

Trump didnt shoot down 3 >

Oh noooes... Anyway, how about that Jan jobs report? >

It appears that he waited just about the right amount of time. Long enough for the GOP to put their foot in their mouths. >

Guess he could have ignored three of them like Trump did?
