President Donald Trump tweeted Wednesday that the three UCLA basketball players arrested for shoplifting in China last week should thank him for his role in helping to resolve the case.
LiAngelo Ball, Jalen Hill and Cody Riley were arrested for stealing designer sunglasses from a store near the team’s hotel during a trip to Shanghai for a game against Georgia Tech.
The players were reportedly expected to serve 20 days of house arrest in the hotel but returned to the United States on Tuesday. Trump tweeted Wednesday that the players were facing 10 years in prison.
Do you think the three UCLA Basketball Players will say thank you President Trump? They were headed for 10 years in jail!

So You just landed after a trip where you basically told a bunch of world leaders you’re gonna nuke North Korea unless they figure it out and your first tweet is about being owed a thank you by some teenagers?? How very stable of you.
America has no pride left so its impossible to embarrass the country so what the hell eh, Don? Fucken rights kid. Ride the horse you won the race with.
I love it.
