President Trump offered what some are calling astonishing tweets. The White House says the president’s comments were rhetorical tweets as it relates to the UCLA basketball players. More from White House Correspondent April Ryan.
Now that the three basketball players are out of China and saved from years in jail, LaVar Ball, the father of LiAngelo, is unaccepting of what I did for his son and that shoplifting is no big deal. I should have left them in jail!

Shoplifting is a very big deal in China, as it should be (5-10 years in jail), but not to father LaVar. Should have gotten his son out during my next trip to China instead. China told them why they were released. Very ungrateful!
