Biden Skillfully Handled Xi Jinping’s U.S. Visit in Ways Trump Simply Never Could
Biden Skillfully Handled Xi Jinping’s U.S. Visit in Ways Trump Simply Never Could
The president was gracious but tough, candid but thoughtful, and unlike his predecessor, did not sell out the country to a dictator.
Had Donald Trump been the U.S. president hosting this week’s APEC meetings, I have no doubt that the headline from the event would have been unchanged. It would have been: “He’s a dictator.”
The only difference is it would be Xi Jinping who was saying it to describe Trump.
Other than that, though, a Trump-hosted APEC meeting would likely have been unrecognizably different from the successful and productive forum hosted by President Joe Biden.
You're viewing a single thread.
Biden did not "skillfully handle" this at all. He foolishly damaged relations with China even further by calling Xi a dictator after going to the trouble of planning this summit.
If you cowards would vote for the Green party or any other party this wouldn't be a problem. Instead, you support the Democrats who don't even try to repair the damage the Republicans do. They both get rich from it together.
Third party votes in a First Past the Post voting system are a protest at best and counter-productive at worst.
Your plan is to keep voting for people who don't support ranked choice voting.
My plan is to vote for people who support ranked choice voting.
It makes perfect sense when you don’t think about it.
You don’t know my plan or my motivations.
Who are you voting for?
Sure as shit not a third party candidate.
So someone who does not support ranked choice voting. Great strategy lol.
You think throwing away your vote on a candidate who claims to support electoral reform but has no chance of winning will have any meaningful impact?
They won't have a chance to win if you don't vote for them.
They might if they joined a real party instead of a troupe cosplaying as politicians.
You want change, you join one of the real parties and fight to become a candidate in that party and gain enough influence to shift party policy.
If everyone that did the third party nonsense did that, there might be enough support in a real party to start changing things and maybe eventually make third parties viable instead of just a performative game.
Greens support Putin, who is genociding queer Russians. No thanks.
In what way does the Green party US support Putin?
So you have literally nothing of substance.
If this is your attempt at being convincing it doesn't seem to be going over too well
The accusation is wild in the first place. Where is Jill Stein's Russian oil money? Are US citizens not allowed to express democracy by running for president because they want to improve the country? No, apparently that means they're working for another country, no logic there.
That explains things quite nicely, thanks!
It does not. They presented no data to back up their claims.
In late 2017, ahead of a series of hearings, Facebook, Twitter, and Google (YouTube) gave Congress data sets of tweets, images, and other content determined to be linked to the Internet Research Agency. This analysis is an investigation of what was provided in the data set to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence

So literally nothing explaining how it's connected.
The report that it's referencing has no evidence, just accusations. If they have evidence they would show it.

Based on what? Nothing.
If Jill Stein was working for Putin why would she publicly show herself sitting at the same table?
If Republicans were working for Putin would they fly to Moscow on the 4th of July?
What's hilarious is that all that nonsense caused Trump's policy to be far tougher on Russia in terms of economic sanctions as well as escalation over Ukraine.
Notice how not one liberal replied to this because you all don't actually study US policy.
Or we just think your claim about Trump was stupid.
Trump did in fact escalate sanctions on Russia, as well as provide addition funding to Ukraine's military.
as well as provide addition funding to Ukraine’s military.
Someone doesn't remember why he was impeached the first time...
Oh man, what a defense!
"Your honor, if I was the murderer, why would I have been at the scene of the crime, holding the murder weapon in my hand? I mean, that would be too obvious!"
You have literally no evidence, just wild accusations
What wild accusation did I make? Show me please.
You insinuated my argument defending Jill Stein against being a russian asset was not a credible defense. The accusations against her are wild and unsubstantiated.
I made no accusation. I just mocked your absolutely bonkers comment saying that Jill Stein publicly sitting down and spending time with Putin proves that she is not affiliated with Putin. The term "wild and unsubstantiated" is something you might want to reflect deeply upon.
The claims are literally wild and unsubstantiated. A woman trying to run for president has the right to. If democrats are going to make the accusation then they need evidence.
What was the meeting about? What did they say to each other? You don't know and don't care.
You can't actually think that's a credible defense, come on now
Where is Jill Stein Russian oil money?
Are you actually saying someone who works for Putin wouldn't publicly show herself with Putin?
Yes she would know better than to do that.
Based on what evidence?
Her successful career as a physician shows she is capable of intelligent thought, something you struggle with.
Insulting me is not evidence. Neither is saying she's a successful physician. That has nothing to do with why she appears with Putin.
I'm not surprised you're resorting to insults though.
Why would i shoot myself in the dick when I could just watch you shoot yourself in the dick?
You do that every time you vote Democrat or Republican
Yes, every time I vote D, I watch you shoot yourself in the dick.
I'm glad I didn't vote for genocide.
You did, you’re just too blind to see it.
No. I didn't. Feel free to try and explain how I did, but you cannot.
Because I'm sure whoever you vote for has a good chance of getting into office. For sure the president in 2024 will be neither Biden nor Trump. It'll be whoever you vote for. It's not like we only have two viable options or anything...
Ironically the polling is showing RFK has a reasonable chace of winning. That opens up the lane for Jill Stein to compete as well.
No it doesn't. No poll shows he has a reasonable chance of winning. That's a lie.
20% absolutely is. He can easily gain 10% more to get to 30% and win it.
How can he 'easily gain 10%?' Why would it be easy? You say a lot of things without any evidence to support them.
Also, that was a telephone poll, so it was extremely inaccurate.
You say a lot of things without any evidence to support them.
Pure projection from you. His mainstream opposition is incredibly weak in Biden and Trump, so yes it is possible and historic to see how much the duopoly is failing.
Lol I haven't laughed so hard all day! Thank you, I needed that.
I laughed way harder at the title of this post
