Well this will encourage others to take more things. Trump needs to stand up to them. Taxpayers paid for this drone. Now we have to pay more taxes to replace it.

It's a bit more important (as just one example) to stop giving 100's of millions in taxpayer dollars to third world thugs and islamic terrorists through USAID. Trump has the right priorities. He also has a sense of humor.

Ahh ... The possibilities for fun are endless. How about a jack-in-the-box that pops up before the thing self-destructs? :)

"Trump needs to act Presidential.

Trump is playing chess and you are playing with yourself, nervously.

We should tell China that they should call us if they want to safely disarm that remote nuclear detonation device.

“The Chinese have some Kenny G. song they always play to signal the end of a workday. Apparently, stores play it to get people to leave when they want to close.”

Would work on me!
How about a drone that, when dissembled, plays an inept rendition of “Chopsticks” non-stop....

“Trump needs to act Presidential.”

Perhaps you watch far too many movies. Remember, they’re movies, not real life.

Still haven’t learned from history.

Remember Francis Gary Powers?

Remember the USS Pueblo?

Remember Korean Air Lines Flight 902?

Remember the Hainan Island incident and the Navy EP-3E aircraft held by China?

The least the military could do is to put heavy duty explosive destruct devices in drones or any other military or research vehicle or device that might fall into the hands of an enemy or antagonist.

That’s exactly what I would them them. The drone is one of our older models and is being phased out as obsolete.

Send the Chicoms a note: “Thanks for finding our old style drone. It’s obsolete and you can keep it, enclosed is an invoice for the purchase price of $350 million. Oh by the way, we probably forgot to arm the nuclear self-destruct device, but you might want to check to be sure”.

The Chinese thought it was a huge squid. They captured it and seeing that they couldn’t eat it, are willing to return it.

If by “fortune cookie” you mean 40 pounds of torpex and a timed detonator, I’m with ya!

You and me both! I love it when Trump talks to us direct, it cuts out the middleman and messes with mainstream media’s head. What could be better than that?
