Physical Confrontation Involving Gen. Kelly & the 'Nuclear Football' During Trump China Visit
Gateway Pundit ^ | February 18, 2018 | Joshua Caplan

When the U.S. military aide carrying the nuclear football entered the Great Hall, Chinese security officials blocked his entry. (The official who carries the nuclear football is supposed to close to the president at all times, along with a doctor.)

A U.S. official hurried into the adjoining room and told Kelly what was happening. Kelly rushed over and told the U.S. officials to keep walking - "We're moving in," he said - and the Americans all started moving.

Then there was a commotion. A Chinese security official grabbed Kelly, and Kelly shoved the man's hand off of his body. Then a U.S. Secret Service agent grabbed the Chinese security official and tackled him to the ground.

I met some Secret Service guys once.

Some of those guys are so chiseled, they can mess ANYONE up!

In the summer of 1992, I hear the Chief Operating Officer of Motorola speak at a Motorola function. He was asked about Bill Clinton and his proposed trade policies. He was looking forward to Clinton being elected.

Specifically, the Motorola executives saw China as a massive customer base for low cost beepers (this was 1992), then cell phones, then computer products.

Yes, Motorola closed a ton of US plants and moved a lot of operations to China.

Clinton and the Baby Boomer members of the US Chamber of Commerce saw tons of sales and a massive customer base, not a competitor.

Yep. Every President since Nixon, till Obama, enabled our enemy, China. Trump is only one who seems to see what China is.

That’s a good one, “thrown into van lady”...

Bwahahahahaaaaaa

Except I'd change the word "lady. "Maybe the translation is different!

Being "chiseled" doesn't translate into fighting skill, sorry. Training, technique and physical conditioning (specifically cardio) does. When two opponents are similar in skill, then speed and strength can lend to an advantage.

Something like this also happened with Obama when he was in China.

I like the name the Irish have given her better: Sack O’Potatoes. And the Irish do know their spuds.

What you wrote, was implied...

Well, yes, of course... they looked highly trained, highly skilled, in shape & willing to mess anyone else.

Sorry I didn’t use as many words as you liked. :-/

I don’t remember where but I’m certain I heard something similar about W. and the officer with the briefcase. I believe he was going into a conference with South and Central American leaders when the host government security tried to block the football. Supposedly, W saw it, turned around, grabbed the officer by the hand and pulled him into the room saying, “He’s with me!”.

Don’t know how true this is.

Didn’t President GW have an issue in Brazil where Brazil purposely closed their security line separating GWs personal body guard and GW. GW quickly turned around and got physical to rescue his body guard.

Can’t see Kerry, Obama or Hillary acting decisively and physically to protect their Agents or the Football.

Thank you, gaijin. Interesting. I tended not to read the news when it was about O. Didn’t want to see his face or hear his voice. Love seeing THIS president!

I watched it and it’s only right at the beginning, then you can stop the video. Nifty!

I’m sorry, Toad. Could you explain what you just said? It doesn’t explain anything and just confuses things.
