Donald Trump "is not behaving as a president who will become master of the White House" is what the communist party-controlled Chinese media had to say regarding The Donald's latest online spat.

Despite the best efforts of Washington and Beijing to keep the issue within official channels, President-elect Donald Trump has again taken to Twitter in order to share his thoughts. Apparently, an American underwater drone was sent out in search for scientific data when it was seized by the Chinese on Thursday, in the name of maintaining the safety of the vessels that passed by as reported by Time.

The Donald immediately posted a Tweet saying "China steals United States Navy research drone in international waters - rips it of water and take it to China in unpresidented act." Probably noticing the spelling error for the word "unprecedented" the tweet was deleted and reposted with proper spelling. Later, Donald Trump added that China could keep the drone that they stole and that America doesn't want it back.

As per The Guardian, China then agreed to return the device on Saturday while Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson Yang Yujun said that China resolutely opposes such activities. However, the open-firing doesn't stop there, on Sunday, the Chinese Communist Party Global Times newspaper released a headline that puts Donald Trump's spelling error under the limelight. The headline read "'Unpresidented' Trump adds fuel to fire.'

Moreover, the article mentioned that Trump was emotionally upset and that the latter was not behaving as a president "who will become master of the White House in a month." In addition, Donald Trump has released his fair share of provocative remarks toward China, accusing them of stealing American jobs and creating the Climate Change Hoax. In return, the article mentioned that China has kept a calm attitude despite all this, however, once The Donald assumes the presidency, restraint will no longer be exercised.
