What an ass. He takes a good move and craps on it because of a player's dad. He should have ignored Ball. Now he is back to tweeting like a 13 year old girl who is stomping away with her Barbie Dream Car because someone in the playground called her ugly.

The ass is the father. Shop lifting is "No big deal". Really dad, so it's OK for your son to steal?
Trump should have left them to rot in China.
-
Yes, he should have. But then they would have called him racist, and claimed he would have gotten them out if they were white. So there was no win, there.
-
If he had to say anything, why not, "Would Lavar Ball prefer his son stayed in a Chinese jail?"
Just kidding. Idiots like Ball and his sons don't warrant a response and should be ignored at all cost - except he could say to the miscreant son who actually thanked him for springing him from jail, "You're welcome." And leave it at that.
-
The thing is, the sons apologized and thanked Trump. But he, the president, is saying he should have left them in a Communist prison because he’s mad at their dad?
-
Yes, he should have. But then they would have called him racist, and claimed he would have gotten them out if they were white. So there was no win, there.
The win to me was simply doing the right thing on behalf of the citizens you represent. No need to ask for thanks or praise, no need to get into a spat with the father of one of them, and certainly no need to childishly claim you “should have left them in jail”. All that does is belittles yourself and the office IMO.

I don't like what someone said so I should have let them sit in a foreign prison.

Agreed...never expect thanks for your good deeds..you will be sorely disappointed.

Yes, because he’s a self-admitted child, mentally.
Mr. Trump memorably told Mr. D’Antonio that “when I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I’m basically the same.”
“The temperament is not that different,” he said.

And there will be defense of his childish idiocy and excuses for how it was right of him to wish imprisonment on a son for his Dad's nonsensical response.
I am so tired of this endless pre-adolescence.
Make it go away! **nononono*

Yeah.............. he knows he's a child, and hasn't done a thing to fix it. :shrug:

I've got no problems with Trump's tweet.
He got the miscreant kid off the hook, and the kid's dad lambasts him for doing so. Very well -- give the dad his due.
I would have left those 3 in a Chinese prison for a while to think their behavior over.
It would have served as a good lesson to American blacks that "actions have consequences..."

More like American athletes.
If you think no blacks understand that actions have consequences, you must not know many.
Jocks of all colors tend to think they can get away with anything because all their lives they have.
It's not a color thing. It's a pampered star athlete thing.
But I'm sure you'll keep thinking in color and not humanity..........

--Scott Adams, who predicted Trump's win in 2015 and now comments on TV and writes books, about the success of Trump's successful communication paradigm, persuasion, and other subjects,
--and you, a self-identified "social media advisor"
Based on accuracy of results and depth of insight, who do you think prevails?

YEA, BUT if hellary was President his whole Family would have the added advantage of being investigated by the IRS. :smokin:

No good deed goes unpunished.

I have mixed feelings on this. On the one hand, I sympathize with how President Trump must feel. On the other hand, why does he have to respond to everything, including the really small stuff like this? Mr. President, this is a nothing burger!

Trump is blaming the son for his dad's actions.
The son has already thanked Trump.
Trump looks petty when he does this crap. But what's new...

Guess we should just be glad they weren't captured soldiers with a critical parent.

If Scott Adams is correct then I am glad there are a few of us that are not so weak-minded as to fall for the persuasion techniques that Trump supposedly uses.

Yes.
The kids were grateful - which was only appropriate.
If Trump didn't respond to the dad, the dad would've looked ungrateful.
Now Trump looks silly.

@kidd No they weren't! they didn't say thank you until after Trumps first commented.
They are modern day Michael Fay's (The student arrested in Singapore for vandalism that was supposed to be caned). I can almost guarantee that within 9 months one of these miscreants will be arrested for something else. I am also dead nuts certain that this was not the first time they have engaged in illegal behavior.

He is a Trump supporter, a big participant in free enterprise capitalism, and would move out of California for lower taxes.
I would classify him as closer to libertarian. He is brutally straight talking.
He is far more interesting and insightful, than virtually all politicians and self-described political commentators and analysts.

Still seems leftist to me, but that could be simply be cause I haven't followed him much since the Dogbert World Domination days (I was the Secretary of Floppies Lost Under the Keyboard). He took some strange turns in the campaign last year, and what little I read of his blog had the messages turned off because he was catching a lot of flack.

:amen: But haven't you learned, Trump is incapable of being an ass. His loyal flock will defend what he says or tweets regardless of what it is.
Just once, I would like to see one of the usual Trump loyalist say, "Yea that was dumb, he should have not tweeted that". It would go a long way in proving their objectivity.

Trump Blasts Ingrate Dad After Aiding Shoplifting Son’s Release from Chinese Jail
November 19, 2017| by Donn Marten
You have to hand one thing to President Trump, he is an absolute master when it comes to using Twitter to bamboozle the media and change the subject, always keeping them off balance.
The media hydra had completely reconfigured after Thursday’s nasty surprise when photographic proof that Democrat Senator Al Franken emerged that he grabbed a sleeping woman’s breasts during a USO tour in Afghanistan.

The only reason Trump intervened was to gain praise. We have no-name citizens rotting in Chinese prison, and he couldn't care less.

President Donald Trump continued his war of words against LaVar Ball on Wednesday morning by calling him an “ungrateful fool” and “a poor man’s version of Don King.”
Ball went on CNN to discuss the president’s role in helping release his son, LiAngelo Ball, and two other UCLA basketball players from detention in China over a shoplifting charge. Ball questioned Trump’s involvement in resolving the issue and said that he had nothing to be thankful from the president.
Trump tweeted: “It wasn’t the White House, it wasn’t the State Department, it wasn’t father LaVar’s so-called people on the ground in China that got his son out of a long term prison sentence – IT WAS ME. Too bad! LaVar is just a poor man’s version of Don King, but without the hair. Just think…..LaVar, you could have spent the next 5 to 10 years during Thanksgiving with your son in China, but no NBA contract to support you. But remember LaVar, shoplifting is NOT a little thing. It’s a really big deal, especially in China. Ungrateful fool!”

Actually he's very adept at using these situations to energize his base. And his enemies keep giving him issues to use.
-
I see trump is taking advantage of the new character limit on twitter
-
Back in April, 2016.......
"The campaign is evolving and transitioning, and so am I," he told the Wall Street Journal. "I'll be more effective and more disciplined."
Trump put it another way during a Thursday morning appearance on NBC's Today Show. "I will be so presidential," he said, "you will be so bored. You'll say, 'Can't he have a little more energy?'"
-
Actually he's very adept at using these situations to energize his base. And his enemies keep giving him issues to use.
It's actually the other way around.
He keeps giving his enemies issues to use.
It may make a tiny part of the base happy, but not the grown ups........

Trump reinforces the belief that he has the maturity of a little kid.
And notice I said "both." The punk's father is just as much of a baby as Trump is.
Fine example both of them are to their kids. *****rollingeyes*****
-

Perhaps because his supporters are just as immature as he is.
I guess these idiotic controversies distract Trump's base from the fact that he hasn't done what he promised them he would.

Two men, both brash, both alpha males, both forever in search of a camera, both convinced that they’re incapable of losing a war of words. It’s easy to see how this escalates endlessly, with each refusing to give the other the parting shot. It’s impossible to see how it ends peacefully, or soon.
Basically it’s the North Korea standoff of loudmouth trolling. An all-out exchange of nuclear blowhardery seems inevitable.
In fact, I’d say a Don King putdown constitutes a mushroom cloud. Is this real life?

Trump’s pissed off because Ball refuses to give him credit for getting his son LiAngelo sprung after a shoplifting charge during the UCLA hoops team’s trip to China. Ball being Ball, he’s probably doing that deliberately, precisely because he knows Trump’s apt to whine about it, raising Ball’s national profile further. He’s already semi-notorious in sports media for being a shameless self-promoter (Trump’s Don King analogy isn’t wildly off) and a bit of a basketball version of a “tennis dad.” Now he’ll be known to the wider population and non-sports media as That Guy Trump Hates. That’s a lucrative niche, and Ball is eager to fill it:
“Did he help the boys get out? I don’t know. … If I was going to thank somebody I’d probably thank President Xi (Jinping),” Ball said Monday night when asked about his back-and-forth with the President by CNN’s Chris Cuomo.
“It wasn’t like he was in the US and said, ‘OK, there’s three kids in China. I need to go over and get them.’ That wasn’t the thought process,” he told Cuomo…
“If you help, you shouldn’t have to say anything,” he said. “Let him do his political affairs and let me handle my son and let’s just stay in our lane.”
If he really wants to get under Trump’s skin, he should say that Obama would have gotten the players released in half the time and had China throw in a few other American prisoners as well. To which Trump would reply by reminding the world of Obama’s sterling record on prisoner releases.
Here’s Ball doing his thing on CNN Monday night, the interview that probably inspired Trump’s tweets this morning. Which will end first, Ball denying Trump credit he’s rightly due for freeing the players or Trump tweeting like he’s a morning shock jock instead of the president?

Anybody who criticizes Trump's childish behavior is a "deep state operative" or high muckety muck in the establishment. No criticism of His Orangeness allowed.
I'll reiterate, I voted for him, he's done some good things........ but he has to stop the juvenile tweeting. He wants to be seen as presidential, he has to start acting like he's grown up.

@Machiavelli I did not vote for him, but I do support his policies. I must admit a little guilty pleasure in seeing him go after the lame stream media, but I do agree that he needs to back off on some of the twittering. Sometimes you just have to take a deep breath and a step of two back.
