… and which leaders get the red-carpet treatment in China these days, and which don’t. Xi and his colleagues see an American president who treats his own country’s Constitution, voters and national interests with no respect. For Beijing, that amounts to an enfeebled America. That translates into an opportunity, a wide-open invitation from the White House, to drive home to the world a message that China is on the rise — receiving at its latest summit an American president who arrives with tribute in his pocket. For such an emissary, no red carpet is needed. Of course he can exit from the back of his plane.
It has been evident for some time Obama’s enemies neither fear nor respect him and his friends do not trust him . The only thing puzzling about this is tha the msm media and one half of Americans are oblivious to this .
I miss Dubya.
The comments on this story on G&M and Star FB pages are remarkably ignorant of how Chinese government policy and international politics works.
An enormous number of people view this through some ridiculous school-yard lens calling it “bullying”
It’s clear China sees itself superior (no surprise there) and Obama as weak and feckless and not a threat so they’re taking advantage of that and showing the world who the real power is.
China is dismissing Obama, because they simply cannot believe how deeply Obama has bowed to them. In this ILLEGAL treaty, Obama has given China until 2030 to do … anything … while America voluntarily cuts their manufacturing through greenhouse regulations that demand cuts of 28% (relative to 2005) by 2025. This absolutely ensures that even MORE manufacturing jobs are exported to China. This will cause China’s economy to eclipse America’s in the next ten years. Soon, ALL international trade will be in Dong, not Dollars. America’s leftists will NOT rest until America is finally taken down a peg, and stops “bullying” the rest of the world. In ten years, Obama will be Clinton-wealthy, and resting in the satisfaction that he was the FIRST US president to “get-even” with an “arrogant”, “white”, America.
Obama exited from the “BACK OF THE PLANE”….That was an insult to his Black Half
some one should have played a recording of a toilet flushing as he “exited”
There was probably a lot of prior back-channel messaging to shift agenda in some way to put the spot light on Obama during the meeting, as usual (he has a way of rudely elbowing his way into meetings, such as in Copenhagen or Paris, IIRC). The PRC just gave him the FU. The details will emerge in due time.
Obama’s job is to defend the Constitution, not usurp it, as he has done with his illegal “treaties” with China and Iran, along with several other nasty executive actions.
It’s so demeaning to have to consult the peoples’ representatives I guess, when one is king.
I have no love for either obama or the PRC. It’s nice seeing them turn on each other.
Pathetic passive aggressive lashing out by the Chinese on this one. Show some class.
