I’m sure Xi is beyond having his feelings hurt by Biden, but just look at Bilken’s reaction lmao.
Inviting a head of state to your country to publicly insult them is unacceptable anywhere, so this is only going to further tarnish the shitty reputation of American diplomacy.
Trump would have handled this better, and I’m not joking.
trump was without question a better president than biden on basically all fronts
Death to America
The benefit of Trump over Biden as a president is that there’s always a chance that Trump accidentally does something good out of vanity or incompetence or laziness, whereas Biden will always follow the same playbook that continues to make everything terrible. Like, I could easily see Trump hearing about the pro-Palestinian protests and saying something off-the-cuff that criticizes Israel or is supportive of Palestine, because he doesn’t actually care either way except insofar as it affects what people say about him in the moment.
Trump would wait at least a few days before calling Xi the leader of Hamas or some dumb shit.
So yeah, you’re right.
Nah, Trump likes Xi. He’ll be all over the place about China, but on an individual level he can spot a winner, and he likes winners. He might even still call Xi a dictator, but he’d be like “and that’s good, because he’s a very smart man. Very smart. China is lucky to have him. Some of us aren’t so lucky, if you know what I mean.”
I’m not sure Trump likes Xi. Sees him as a worthy adversary? Maybe. Like? Ehhhh.
Those are just my vibes though.
He called the leader of Egypt a dictator to his face, through a translator fwiw.
Edit: ok it actually wasn’t to his face. He called Sisi his favorite dictator before he arrived to an event, in front of diplomatic staff from Egypt
Trump or Biden? Equally possible. Trump meant it as a compliment, Biden because of brain rot.
On one hand, getting called a dictator. On the other hand, I’m fairly sure Trump sees that as a compliment.
Egypt is our ally right? That means he probably is a dictator. It is a safe guess. I have no actual knowledge of the situation
