Just know this; They will only rescue you if the right President is in office. Pretty much only Reagan and Trump. Oh, and we have to give a special mention to Jimmy Carter for at least trying. Also, if you are held hostage in China, you wont be saved, no matter who is in the White House.

Don't go to China. Right now they are like Hotel California. You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

Yeah, hat tip to Jimmy Carter. He at least tried to rescue the Americans held hostage in Iran. When the rescue attempt (Operation Eagle Claw) went sideways and FUBAR, Jimmy Carter didn't throw anyone under the bus. He accepted full responsibility.
