Looks As If The WLB Did Not Fool China

Quote:China mocks Trump missile strike after Xi leaves US: ‘A weakened politician who needed to flex his muscles’
Quote:“Xinhua, the state news agency, on Saturday called the strike the act of a weakened politician who needed to flex his muscles,” The New York Times reported. “In an analysis, Xinhua also said Mr. Trump had ordered the strike to distance himself from Syria’s backers in Moscow, to overcome accusations that he was ‘pro-Russia.'”
Yup. Took them no time at all to figure out the WLB.

I guess they waited to comment until Xi left the US so he wouldn't have to deal with Trump's temper tantrum in person.

Trump is a comic book reader conducting international diplomacy with master chess players. They will beat him blindfolded.

It's even worse than that.

Quote:Former “SNL” star and Donald Trump impersonator Taran Killam has confirmed everyone’s worst suspicions about the commander-in-chief’s time on “Saturday Night Live”: Trump “struggled to read.”
Recalling the experience to Brooklyn Magazine, the actor said, “He was … everything you see. What you see is what you get with him, really. I mean, there was no big reveal. He struggled to read at the table read, which did not give many of us great confidence. Didn’t get the jokes, really. He’s just a man who seems to be powered by bluster.”
Killam’s comments about Trump’s difficulties grasping the written language back up remarks previously made by Pete Davidson.
Shortly after Trump’s “SNL” episode in 2015, Davidson told Opie Radio that the president “doesn’t really know how to read.”

Look, any U.S. president is going to have a hard time dealing with China, if for no other reason than because the Chinese leadership operates on a completely different timeline than a president can afford. I'm no fan of authoritarian rule, but it's undeniable that such a rule, if relatively stable, allows the leadership to take the long view of things and to take their time cutting deals. Don't like this or that U.S. administration? Wait 'em out. There will be another one in a few years. This is a brute fact of international diplomacy with which all presidents must contend.
Now couple that with China smelling blood in the water. A president who (a) is in way over his head and (b) is becoming ever weaker domestically is a guy they don't really have to deal with on any significant level -- unless there is an angle to play to their advantage. Trump thinks he's so fucking slick at cutting deals and swaggering into whatever he wants. He's never played at this level. By the time the Chinese, the Russians, and others are finished with him, he's going to look like a street-corner whore who just pulled a train.

I think there are no significant world leaders who didn't understand what trump was doing and why he was doing it. Only those who were brain dead and the remains of whose brain cells were cremated by also bing Republican could think trump was doing this out of "leadership".
