Brumar,
Who cares how the balloon was brought down? I don't.
It was brought up by mainstream media (NBCNews, IIRC) as a possible reason why we didn't immediately shoot it down. We supposedly didn't want to reveal our air defense capabilities.
But I don't like Trump hiding that there were spy balloons when he was President. That was the mark of a weakling..
So why did the Brandon administration do the exact same thing?

Clearly this isn't just a Trump thing. Seems like something that the military has been dealing with on a regular basis.
