Three UCLA basketball players were on their way back to the U.S. Tuesday after President Trump asked China’s president personally to intervene on their shoplifting charges.
Fox News confirmed that LiAngelo Ball, Jalen Hill and Cody Riley, who were arrested after being accused of stealing designer sunglasses from a Louis Vuitton store next to the team’s hotel in Hangzhou, have been released and were traveling back home.
Mr. Trump said Tuesday he personally intervened with Chinese President Xi Jinping to seek their release.
Mr. Trump said of the situation, “What they did was unfortunate. That was not something that should have happened.”

ReplyDeleteShould have left them there . They wont appreciate what the President did for them anyway
ReplyDeleteI hope they Thank President Trump. Their families as well. Could have gotten up to 10 years in prison.
ReplyDeleteWill they thank Trump? Oddsmakers are saying yes,but only under duress.
ReplyDeleteDon’t thank President Trump.
ReplyDeleteThank the people like me that voted for him.
I'll give them one day before they kneel for the anthem and start telling everyone how racist Trump is and how they have been denied an education and riches because they are black.
ReplyDeleteThe truth doesn't enter their mind.
Except a white man came to the rescue of three more black people.
Those darn white people. Good thing they help us. Otherwise, we would be nothing more than the tallest person in the welfare office and trying hide from the police and the child support officials.
Now, they get to go to a college most would be denied entry to and will get a degree in a field that they couldn't even spell.
Because they are so oppressed.
Lawd,chile, oppress me.
PLEASE.
I'm tired of working for what I have....
