I hope he's actually serious about the stricter stance on China.

Nit watching. What specifically did he say he was going to be stricter on? Economically like Trump? If so great thats actually useful for Americans.

My guess is he'll make a show about being tough on the human rights issues while easing Trumps economic gains. I honestly don't give one fuck about their human rights issues as it has zero bearing on my life. Him lifting steel tariffs though would impact me as a steelworkwr greatly.

It was on human rights and Democracy. Nothing about economic issues other than funneling money to science to catch up with China on scientific innovations. I bet most of that money will be spent on climate change.

Fuck no. Don’t forget the summit in Alaska. We got shit on and he was proud of that performance

That was still a more confrontational stance than we had during the Obama admin. Unfortunately Biden picked complete idiots to represent us in talks with other countries.

And that could be by design. We can pretend to have a confrontational stance by having ineffective idiots reflect that stance. Meanwhile in the background, it's business as usual.
