Careful what you say. The Chinese own you. Rule #1 is: never, ever bite the hand that feeds you.

And, yeah, the fact that it’s the first time in 13 years that the Chinese decide to drop-in on their latest colony should be a tale-tell sign that they’re worried about the state of economic affairs in their little Western possession. I’d love to be a fly on the White House wall to see all the backpedaling and lieing that Oblahblah will have to do to convince the Chinese master that all is well in the United States of Ass and that they should fork over a few trillion bucks more for the next war or two.
