Unfortunately, this is very accurate.
While Donald Trump has been reeking havoc around the world, damaging global economies and long term relationships with ruinous tariffs(for both sides) and the worst global energy crisis in history. While breaking International Laws (bombing countries illegally-starting an unprovoked/unjustified war), threatening allies....etc and bragging that "America is back!" policies that Donald Trump is 100% responsible for........China has been doing the exact opposite. Helping to repair the damage caused by Donald Trump. Providing stable messages of wisdom and paths forward for the world, that contrast to Donald Trump's constant unhinged screeds that tear the world down.
I've been SHOWING this happening for a long time now!

The pictures of the line of toadies representing the United States are quite sad.

Thanks, patrick!
Since YOUR link brings up Hunter Biden and makes the point to show Donald Trump as a hypocrite, although this is NTR stuff, I will use this to show the difference between Eric Trump and Hunter Biden (both corrupt).
And to demonstrate that MarketForum is an ANTI echo chamber.

We can assume several things about this historic visit.
1. Both sides will put spins on everything.
2. The entire truth will not be told by either side
3. Trump will lie a lot when he tells us about it
++++++++++++++
After Trump's behavior this past year, it would be galactic hypocrisy for him to stand up for Taiwan's independence and non interference from China. His credibility is totally shot in that area.
China owns Donald Trump on the topic of Taiwan and in fact, Donald Trump has given China a gift and golden opportunity to exploit this opportunity to do what they want with Taiwan.
Eric F. Trump is the designated chief of the Trump Organization. In the graftapalooza of the last 16 months, he has pocketed about $500,000,000. He has participated in many of that organizations crimes & frauds over the years, including signing checks to Michael Cohen in the concealed payoff scheme that led to felony convictions of Michael Cohen & Donald Trump. His presence in the delegation confirms that the interests of the Trump family, not the United States, are the principal motivation for this excursion. And that they don't mind making that obvious.
I agree 1 million% with you, patrick.
My point was not directed at you at all, just that your source brought up Hunter Biden to claim (very legitimately)
that Donald Trump is a huge hypocrite because he squawked loudly and often about Hunter's blatant corruption, using his Daddy's position as VP and President.
So the point is that BOTH sides were doing it and I went back to show the indisputable evidence from me showing Joe Biden doing it and MarketForum holding Joe Biden accountable with 100s of posts showing the indisputable evidence.
In other words, that was more for our MAGA/R friends here that are turned off by me holding Donald Trump accountable (I almost never post on the blatant corruption with his family because he has 10 other really, REALLY bad things happening that get my priority) while they give Donald Trump a totally free pass!
When MAGA here and elsewhere was screaming bloody murder over Hunter.
That's the way it is when POLITICAL AFFILIATION determines ones mindset and what the cheer for and what to cheer against.
I only cheer for the truth and expose corruption and lies from BOTH sides and congratulate you for being on the right side of it when it comes to Donald Trump. I appreciate your posts on this issue because they have all supported right against wrong.
That was to better clarify the previous posts which, I understand why it could have presented a misleading message to suggest Hunter was just as bad. The Trump family is orders of magnitude WORSE.
I came up with this phrase below myself and used it many dozens of times in conversations here, including the one below that featured a battle for truth with some crazy ANTI vaccines nuts here.
I invite you and others to read the entire thread and multiply that X 100 to try to understand the time I spent on just that topic here trying to enlighten ANTI vax readers (as well as the fake election steal-fake Russia interference Witch Hunt and fake climate crisis) to HELP the misinformed to overcome their CAPTURED BRAINS.
Did I waste my time on these guys and others?
Probably but we have thousands of people that read here and SOME of them used it for objective discernment. At the same time, metmike learns things, almost EVERY time and sharing it using MarketForum as a platform means the effort is NEVER wasted!

The thread that was linked to on the previous post is loaded with awesome quotes that deserve to be recirculated again!
The excessive number of posts at that thread, somehow resulted in the moderator being blocked from it , which is why I need to use my assistant, commodityman(which is me having a different handle in a legal way) to post it:

I'll refrain from adding too much insult to injury and just repeat that it would be in the best interest of the United States future to get along with China as much as possible in situations that allow that to happen.
They have 3 times our population, loaded with brilliant people and a better work ethic from labor that will do the same jobs at a fraction of the wage which makes it impossible for us to beat them in some industries.
We should just appreciate that even with our smaller and smaller piece of the global economic pie, the SIZE OF THE PIE is growing enough so the United States and China can both do well, especially by enhancing positive relationships. That's why this visit by Donald Trump was a good one to help offset the orders of magnitude greater damage that he's done to the relationships between the US and so many other countries.

The biggest problem that we have about headline news coming from China this week is this:
"Trump says this about China" "Trump says that about China"
"Trump says this about Xi" "Trump says that about Xi"
When and where has Donald Trump been a reliable source for information about anything??????
What are the chances that he suddenly decided to tell the truth for a few days while in China?
Granted, in this case he was very limited on his ability to make extreme, delusional screeds with no ground rules because there was a powerful entity controlling him to some extent.
No doubt that Xi knows him and assumes that his versions to the media will never be accurate. Donald Trump is incapable of doing that.

Again, the imminent nuclear weapons threat is a Bibi Netanyahu, Donald Trump manufactured/false narrative that they used to justify an unprovoked, unjustified attack and the leader of China knows this with absolute certainty.

Donald Trump twisting this because he thinks that it suggests to naive people listening to him that Xi agrees with his justification to attack Iran is complete BS!
