President Donald J. Trump ordered China to release three members of the 11-time national championship University of California at Los Angeles men's basketball team it had been holding prisoner in the Emperor's suite at the five-star Hangzhou Hotel, so that they could return to Westwood in time for this Saturday's game against South Carolina State.
The players had been detained in China because the Chinese felt Americans should have to pay for local trinkets it pleases them to take.
President Trump corrected the Chinese viewpoint and counseled President Xi that Americans do what they want during the Age of Trump, underscoring his message by maneuvering three naval battle groups in the Sea of Japan. China promptly released the basketball players. They are now back in Westwood busy practicing for Saturday's predicted blow-out against SC State.
