The Xi has hit the fan (of the U.S. -led post-WWII global order) and it’s foreshadowing a new world order to include our old European allies and countries of the Global South - who have been economically hit by Trump’s blockade of the Hormuz Strait! Taiwan is being sacrificed as part of Trump’s capitulation to Xi - sad 😔

Trump’s face is a window to his mind - and it wasn’t reflecting positive vibes after the meeting with Xi - even though he was mouthing the usual Roy Cohn lines. Also, we haven’t seen the superlative Truth posts after the meeting? It’s quite likely Xi leaned hard on Trump regarding Taiwan - even willing to play hardball for getting his way- catching Trump by surprise!

NOW - Trump says it's good to have 500,000 foreign Chinese students in the U.S. and for China to purchase U.S. farmland; otherwise, colleges and farm prices would collapse: "I frankly think that it's good that people come from other countries and they learn our culture."

The EB notes, “Mr. Trump reportedly said nothing in response to Mr. Xi’s Thucydides play, which we hope is a good sign.” This is accurate, in that, Trump didn’t respond to Xi right away—there were snide social media posts suggesting Trump did not understand the reference and it was explained to him later—but then he put out a ridiculous post blaming Biden for America’s decline as perceived by Xi! In fact, Biden was never invited to visit China because he warned Xi publicly on several occasions that the U.S. would come to the defense of Taiwan, if China tried to seize it by force. Has Trump taken such a bold stance on Taiwan? Speaking of the Thucydides Trap, how about the “Trumpian Trap?” World leaders can’t avoid the “Trumpian Trap” — a mouth that spills all the beans, so they always know what’s on his mind! Trump’s face is a window to his mind—and it wasn’t reflecting positive vibes after the meeting with Xi—even though he came out of it mouthing the usual Roy Cohn lines to his favorite news anchors. But we haven’t seen Trump’s usual superlative posts about his “fantastic deals” at the summit. It’s quite likely Xi leaned hard on Trump regarding Taiwan—even willing to play hardball for getting his way—catching Trump by surprise! It’s time Trump realized that—by continuing to insist that Xi is a “close friend” —he is only fooling himself. 2027 is months away and it was Xi’s original deadline for taking Taiwan either peacefully or by force! Are we prepared for this catastrophe?
