I mean, I guess, but I just can't bring myself to be scared of a balloon.  What is this?  1865?  It's not like there's a bomb in there.  Chinese tech is not a danger to anyone.
China sucks and all.  They put people in camps and torcher and kill them.  I'm just not scared of their "air force."
Conservatives in today's Daily Mail comment section: "That was just China doing a trial run. They were waiting until a weaker president was in office to send a proper balloon all the way over the US." Utter, utter morons. So by their own logic, the "trial run" with Trump told them that America would do jack shit about spy balloons. Do they have even the slightest inkling of how stupid they are? >

The Daily Mail is such a joke. >

Unfortunately it's the most widely read conservative newspaper in the world. People need to understand that it's every bit as damaging as Fox News. >

There will always be a news ‘org’ for bigots. >

Republicans said nothing when it happened under Trump, but now they're pretending to be outraged. >

I don't think they noticed and I don't think they noticed when the same thing happened earlier during the Biden term.
They have access to classified intelligence briefings (at least the leaders do) so they have no excuse for not knowing how nonserious all five incidents were. >

It's still a serious incident but not because of anything Biden did.  It's serious because China violated our airspace.
